  1. OPTIMAOptimisation for Sustainable Water ManagementWP 2 corridoio.zero Multidisciplinary Lab for Exchanges with the Balkans and the Mediterranean Region

  2. corridoio.zero in OPTIMA • Integrated approach • Systemic approach but attention to peculiar frameworks • Qualitative information beside quantitative data • Relationship building (case study partners) • Thematic parallel desk studies • Care to local organizations of communities • Including “informal” sources of information, constraints and stakeholders • Participatory tools • “Active hearing” • Workshops (facilitation)

  3. Work Plan

  4. Work Plan Socio-economic framework: decision making processes Evaluation: post-optimal decision analysis Requirements and constraints analysis

  5. Overall Tasks (1) STEP 1: Identification of stakeholders • Local administrations • Local NGOs or social groups • i.e., manufacturing and agricultural workers, environmental NGOs • Water supply authorities • Water users • ... NETWORK OF STAKEHOLDERS

  6. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Institutions in charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  7. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users Exploitation of the freshwater resources Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Treatment of wastewater Production of desalinated water Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  8. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users Distribution of potable wate Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Distribution of irrigation water Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  9. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users Domestic Users Industry (>15 employees) Agriculture Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Industry (<15 employees) Tourism Energy production Breeding Transportation Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  10. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users Institutions relevant to the case study area Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  11. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users natural resources, including water resources Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  12. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users NGO’s Water research centres Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory professional registers groups of citizens/ local commitees educational institutes Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  13. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users Monitoring activity Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Setting of quality standards Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  14. How to identify such stakeholders? Water Distribution Water Production Water Users protection of freshwater resources Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  15. protection of freshwater resources How to evaluate a local actor’s representativeness?...an instance: Water Distribution Water Production Water Users protection of freshwater resources Regional pollution control Regional development and planning of the territory Institutions taking charge of water quality Institutions in charge of water conservation Unofficial/hybrid groups & associations

  16. Which is the “dimension” of the problem? Total number of organizations on the basin Total area interested (km2) protection of freshwater resources Total volume of water interested (m3/yr) Total number of residents involved

  17. How representative is the actor I can contact? Territorial level/competence of the body Total area interested by the organization (km2) “Water Conservation League” of the Xxxx Municipality Total volume of water interested by the organization (m3/yr) Total number of residents involved by the organization

  18. “Water Conservation League” of the Xxxx Municipality Who’s the contact person, and how can I communicate to her/him? Name Gender Spoken language(s) “Water Conservation League” of the Xxxx Municipality Is he/she directly working or living on the area? Role within the organization Mr/Ms Yyyy Zzzz How to communicate to contact person (on site survey, phone, mail, e-mail...) Contact details (address, telephone number, e-mail address...)

  19. Overall Tasks (2) • STEP 2: Identification of water issues • Campaign/survey on so far identified stakeholders • First Local Workshop: • needs/wishes/expectation expressed by stakeholder translated into overall objectives • Indentification of further performance indicators of water policies GUIDELINES (draft version)

  20. Overall Tasks (3) • STEP 3: SH structure of preferences: • Workshop 2 • preferences are translated in a set of relative weights • ranking of alternatives for every stakeholder • Identification of existing conflicts and mediated alternatives GUIDELINES (2nd draft) OPTIMA Kick-Off Meeting, 29 Oct ‘04

  21. Overall Tasks (4) • STEP 4: comparison at regional scale • Collection of results • Comparison on a regional scale • Last regional workshop • Presentation to the larger regional community Guidelines for a Participatory Approach to Water Policies in Local Communities OPTIMA Kick-Off Meeting, 29 Oct ‘04

  22. Participative attitude all along OPTIMA project • Although officially planned for specific work-packages, the participatory techniques should be an attitude & a “habit” running through all the project. • Most important, although work on single study cases will be mostly accomplished by local partners, the assistance of c.zero & IRM will be at their full disposal while dealing with local actors.
