| description | The current phase (2010-2013) of the Challenge Program on Water and Food (CPWF)
research is addressing the Volta Basin Development Challenge (VBDC) which has
been defined as “integrated management of rainwater and small reservoirs for
multiple purposes”. The research-for-development program is designed to explore
the institutional, socio-economic and technical aspects of small reservoir development
and maintenance within a wider rainwater management system in the Volta Basin to
maximize water for food and ecosystem services. The purpose of the inception
workshop was to review and assess all VBDC projects for coherence and integration
towards achieving the overall goal. Secondly it provided an opportunity to launch the
research agenda, share our plans and approaches with a wider, relevant stakeholder
group, and to obtain important feedback which can be fed into the research process.
The key question to address during the workshop was: “what are the lessons learned
in the inception phase of VBDC research and how would these lessons shape
project implementation in the next phase?”. It was expected that the workshop
would contribute to ensuring relevance of the research agenda, as well as
strengthening the integration of the five VBDC projects and their teams. |
