'Water conflict' is a well-used term that describes a variety of situations associated with disagreements related to water. However, although current categorisation is strong, it does exclude occurrences that are significant and includes others which arguably are not. Moving away from the restrictions of the academic definition of conflict and expanding the concept into water related violence instead, allows for further exploration into factors, themes, and links beyond the current groupings, which will be beneficial for ongoing research into water violence. Understanding causes and identifying themes between instances of water violence could be used as a mechanism to assist with prevention as well as management of water violence - for example, if gender was identified as a key theme, policy or methods could be adapted to incorporate this into IWRM schemes to reduce water violence. Currently, it is not clear if there are there are common factors and themes in water violence beyond Gleick's grouping of weapon, trigger, casualty. A systematic literature review should be able to further identify themes and factors and create further categorisation. Once identified, small-scale case studies could be used to 'test' the categories. A systematic review also allows for easier comparison between the literature and can identify and potentially negate bias in primary research, as well as ascertaining both themes and anomalies. The resulting research should provide greater understanding of causes and factors of 'water violence', that could be used by other academics to conduct further research, professionals to adapt IWRM programmes and governments to guide policy to make water services resilient against water violence.

“水冲突”是一个常用术语，描述与水相关的分歧相关的各种情况。然而，尽管当前的分类很严格，但它确实排除了重要的事件，并包括其他可能不重要的事件。摆脱冲突的学术定义的限制，将概念扩展到与水有关的暴力，可以进一步探索当前分组之外的因素、主题和联系，这将有利于正在进行的水暴力研究。了解水暴力事件的原因并确定主题可以用作协助预防和管理水暴力的机制 - 例如，如果性别被确定为关键主题，则可以调整政策或方法以将其纳入水资源综合管理计划旨在减少水暴力。目前，除了格莱克的武器、扳机、伤亡等分组之外，尚不清楚水暴力中是否存在共同因素和主题。系统的文献综述应该能够进一步确定主题和因素并进行进一步的分类。一旦确定，可以使用小规模案例研究来“测试”这些类别。系统评价还可以更轻松地比较文献，并可以识别并可能消除初级研究中的偏见，以及确定主题和异常。由此产生的研究应该能够更好地了解“水暴力”的原因和因素，其他学者可以利用这些信息进行进一步的研究，专业人员可以利用这些信息来调整水资源综合管理计划，政府可以指导政策，使水服务能够抵御水暴力。
