Abstract
IIssues related to transboundary water resources are considered a socio-political and ultimately environmental challenge, because access to fresh water and its optimal management can act as a power tool in relations between different countries and within societies. Water diplomacy as a process can work to resolve water-related tensions and facilitate cooperation between countries with shared water resources. But this new and emerging concept does not have enough theoretical and scientific support to present a process. For this reason, in this article, by expanding the concept of water diplomacy, an attempt was made to present step-by-step the paths of water diplomacy for different fields and water diplomacy measures related to performance in the form of a water diplomacy road map. For this purpose, first the existing approaches in water diplomacy were discussed with a descriptive-analytical method and by finding the focal components in water diplomacy including actors, interests, power and goals, a water diplomacy roadmap based on the advantages of the approaches was presented. This water diplomacy roadmap by designing strategic solutions and frameworks in water diplomacy presents a process of transferring the existing conditions to the desired one, which helps to regulate relations between countries and various institutions and through it to create effective cooperation, agreements and dialogues between countries. and sustainability in the field of water will lead.
