To address water-related issues of river pollution, floods, droughts, and ecological water allocations, there is a need for an integrated river basin management (IRBM) plan for the successful management of all the river basins in the country. Stakeholder engagement is one of the important elements for the effective implementation of IRBM. In this study, a systematic bibliometric analysis has been successfully carried out to identify the trends, patterns, and research gaps in the establishment of stakeholder engagement frameworks in IRBM. Three renowned scientific databases were used to quantitatively assess the published literature on stakeholder engagement. The search contributed by providing a clear understanding and mechanisms for an effective stakeholder engagement, thus highlighting the research gap, whereby there is a lack of an effective stakeholder engagement framework for IRBM. Based on the analysis results, it was found that many pieces of literature have been written about the implementation of IRBM, including the importance of stakeholder engagement or participation. However, there is very limited study on how effective stakeholder engagement could be carried out to enhance water management at the river basin level. The findings also recorded that stakeholder engagement can serve as a form of social learning, and leadership plays a significant role in ensuring the effectiveness of stakeholder engagement in IRBM. From the review analysis, it was concluded that further research studies need to be carried out at the river basin level to formulate an effective stakeholder engagement framework for the sustainable management of water.

“…Sangle (2010) showed that effectively engaging stakeholder groups is a critical success factor in public sector CSR in India. Yet, despite the impressive performance of the public sector in CSR in India, one major concern has been ineffective stakeholder engagements (O'Sullivan et al, 2020). Ray (2013), in this regard, pointed out that for CSR to be more effective public sector stakeholder engagements needed to be streamlined.…”

“…Several frameworks have been developed to study stakeholder engagement in order to augment CSR performance (Rhodes et al, 2014;Blok et al, 2015;Haddaway et al, 2017;O'Sullivan et al, 2020). Firms need appropriate capabilities for stakeholder engagement that draw on the knowledge, understanding and behaviour of employees of the firm, working through structures and processes that cross traditional organisational boundaries (Rhodes et al, 2014).…”

Several public sector undertakings in India and across the world have taken up corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives in education to promote social welfare. The effectiveness of these initiatives depends on the level of stakeholder engagement in them. Integration of human values ensures that stakeholder engagement becomes holistic leading to co-created value for the benefit of all involved. This paper discusses a holistic values-based framework of stakeholder engagement inspired by the philosophy of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. Illustrations from the CSR initiatives of public sector undertakings in India have been provided to stress the benefits of integration of human values in stakeholder engagement.

“…The collaborative modelling approach spanned central and multiple basin state governments, as well as NGOs and development partners. O'Sullivan et al [8] focus specifically on the challenges of stakeholder engagement in large river basins. They present a new integrative framework for stakeholder engagement built around a cloud-based web application for basin modelling and planning that relies heavily on open access Earth observation datasets.…”
