19. The Need for Information
Sharing Information for a Catchment
Based Approach
• Need to move from
catchment data &
information to knowledge &
wisdom
• All stakeholders need access
• CaBA= engagement =
opportunity to develop
information sharing
Catchment
Based Approach
Partnerships f or Action
Wisdom
Understanding
principles
Knowledge
Engage farmers
& deliver
interventions
Source = diffuse
agricultural runoff
Understanding
patterns
Information
P increases during
high flows
Understanding
relationships
Data
High P values in
stream

Editor's Notes
One way of navigating will be based on the catchment management process
Another way in is a spatial search – your catchment and neighbouring ones. Basic catchment factfiles, contact information for main partners, what approaches are being taken by the partnerships in this catchment
Especially pilot catchments – click on the process tabs at the top to browse through approaches. Click ‘show me how’ to take people to specific guidance – e.g. data sources, how to get hold of it, what software is available, etc. Click on ‘show me other approaches’ to show what others have done at this stage in the process.
It’s not just about sharing data. Moving up the data continuum is about engaging people – if you build the understanding together then you can use the knowledge to influence behaviour – that’s when it becomes wisdom. For this to work it can’t just be about academics, consultants and specialists combining datasets and presenting outputs then expecting interventions to happen. Experience shows that if the end audience isn’t engaged at every stage, they don’t buy in to the modelling and so they don’t believe the outputs or understand the level of uncertainty, so providing access to data AND derived information AND knowledge is crucial.
