Identifying organizational stakeholders is essential for effective water resource planning. Policymaking in the water sector necessitates an understanding of how each stakeholder influences various aspects of the issue and their relationships with one another. This study aims to identify these stakeholders and examine the structure of social relations, focusing on the decision-making network within the framework of water governance in the Great Karun Basin. The research population comprises specialists, managers, and experts from organizations involved in water governance in the region. A purposeful sample was selected using snowball sampling. Data were gathered through semistructured interviews and relevant questionnaires. For data analysis, UCINET 6.528 software was employed. The findings revealed that beneficiaries of water governance in the Great Karun Basin fall into three categories: key players (33.34%), subjects (30%), and the crowd (36.66%). The density index reflects a strong level of cohesion among organizations based on decision-making connections. Indicators of reciprocity and transferability suggest that the stability and cohesion of the decision-making network range from medium to high. Furthermore, the average geodesic distance within the interorganizational decision-making network indicates a low social distance among individuals, resulting in a high circulation speed of decision-making links. Additionally, the effective size index identifies the water and electricity organization as the primary decision-maker in water governance for the Great Karun Basin in Khuzestan Province.
