Recommendations for RKNOW next phase Based on a comprehensive investigation done by IUCN ROWA we recommend to adopt the following approaches for RKNOW next phase (pilot selection criteria):
Recommendations for RKNOW next phase Based on what has been done at EMPOWERS project, it is recommended to adopt the 7 pillars of water governance in the evaluation and selection criteria: 1- Integration; 2- Vulnerability; 3- Harmonization; 4- Building capacities; 5- Accessible information; 6- Developed solution; 7- Awareness EMPOWERS Approach • Integration: The integrated participation of all stakeholders and end-users at all levels • Vulnerability: Special efforts are made to include vulnerable groups. • Harmonization: The efforts of all actors (government, partners in development, civil society) should be harmonized • Building capacities: Capacities of stakeholders should be developed at different levels to enable them to participate in water resources planning and management. • Accessible information: Water information should be considered a public good; and access to information be enabled for all citizens. • Developed solution: Locally appropriate solutions and tools should be developed. • Awareness: Awareness must be developed for informed participation in water governance.
