  abstract = {{T}he sustainability of groundwater abstraction is fast becoming a global challenge. {T}his article reviews cases and assess the potential of groundwater comanagement, beginning by identifying a comanagement spectrum with varying degrees of role sharing between the state and user communities. {T}welve case studies selected from a global review illustrate varied levels of success. {K}ey contextual elements are identified that contribute to raising the chances of success of comanagement. {T}hese include certain characteristics of the user community, the existence of a credible environmental or legal threat, joint monitoring and transparency, and substantial available funding. {S}tate action is shown to involve a delicate balance between "carrots" and "sticks" as part of a wider political balancing between parties. {T}he limitations of both state- and community-centered governance make comanagement appear as a way forward but a delicate set of conditions is needed for it to be effective. {T}his article is categorized under: {H}uman {W}ater > {W}ater {G}overnance {E}ngineering {W}ater > {P}lanning {W}ater},
