Sustainable water resource management requires comprehensive and interdisciplinary approaches that can holistically analyze economic, social, and environmental dimensions. In this context, the integration of water accounting and systems thinking, as a novel approach, enables an understanding of the complex dynamics of human-water systems. The objective of this systematic review is to identify and analyze the role of this integration in strengthening sustainable water resource governance. The research method is based on a systematic review of studies published over the last two decades in reputable scientific databases and a content analysis of their findings. The results indicate that water accounting, by providing accurate data on water resource flows and consumption, supplies the necessary information infrastructure for systems modeling, while systems thinking, by analyzing causal relationships, feedback loops, and time delays, contributes to adaptive and long-term decision-making. The integration of these two approaches enhances transparency, institutional accountability, cross-sectoral coordination, and the efficiency of water allocation policies. Furthermore, this approach, through the design of dynamic scenarios, enables the assessment of the social and environmental consequences of decisions. Despite this, challenges such as a lack of precise data, the absence of standardized indicators, and weak interdisciplinary cooperation are the main obstacles to the practical implementation of this integration. Finally, the results of the study emphasize that developing localized frameworks based on water accounting and systems thinking can pave the way for achieving sustainable and resilient water resource governance in Iran.
