LLPs are coded so their progress can be tracked and reported up to the HLP. Project managers submit weekly plan updates which are consolidated and various reports are generated to monitor progress and identify any issues. Management reviews progress and approves or rejects any requested slippage.

The document examines cases in the Niger and Nile River basins and concludes that principles for responsible investment must acknowledge water needs and sustainable use to help regulate impacts on transboundary waters.
Womens empowerment and increased food security through increased access to la...Global Water Partnership
1) The organization Swadhina worked to empower women in Jharkhand, India through increased access to land and water resources. They formed women's committees to oversee activities and identify key issues of water, land rights, and women's positions.
2) To address water challenges, they constructed irrigation boxes and desilted tanks to improve water storage. They encouraged sustainable farming practices. For land, they reclaimed unused land and introduced new crop varieties. They gave women possession certificates for resources to establish land rights.
3) These interventions improved food security, economic conditions, and women's leadership roles. Women gained confidence through skills training and decision-making power over resources. Community development minimized migration from the area
This document discusses the need for coordinated governance of land and water resources that places people at the center. It argues that people have holistic perspectives on natural resources that support their livelihoods. Coordinated governance is needed to address issues like growing competition for water resources and ensuring access for all. Water constituencies can learn from land constituencies' focus on marginalized people, customary rights, and global rights-based dialogue. The document calls for voluntary guidelines that frame land and water tenure through joint people-centered processes respecting customary entitlements and human rights to resources.
Responding to the global food security challenge through coordinated land and...Global Water Partnership
The Yacambu-Quíbor Project in Venezuela aims to transfer water from the Yacambu River watershed to the Quíbor valley to increase irrigation and agricultural production. The Quíbor valley has highly fertile land but lacks sufficient water, relying on groundwater extraction. The project would build a dam on the Yacambu River and tunnel to carry 330 million cubic meters per year to the valley. Key strategies include reinforcing sustainable irrigation practices, exploring equitable water distribution, and establishing institutions and policies to regulate groundwater use and protect water resources long term.

It discusses Oxfam's work on women's land rights, land tenure governance, responses to large-scale land investments, and engagement with partners like the African Union. It also outlines Oxfam's Global Water Governance Program focusing on the Mekong, Indus, and Limpopo river basins, and challenges in the Limpopo basin like unequal water access. Oxfam's solutions for the Limpopo include capacity building, linking communities, documenting best practices, and influencing policies to achieve more inclusive water governance.
Links between land use and groundwater - governance provisions and management...Global Water Partnership
The document discusses the links between land use and groundwater, noting that while there is a causal chain from need for resources to land use change to groundwater impacts, these links are not deterministic. It provides examples of how land use planning can address groundwater quality and quantity through techniques like limiting land use in hydrogeologically defined zones. Governance instruments at national, regional, and local levels can help implement these techniques through policies, planning, and regulatory frameworks, though there are also legal, institutional, and economic obstacles.
Just in time chances for a holistic approach for land and water governanceGlobal Water Partnership
1. The document discusses the Cisadane Watershed Multistakeholders Forum in Indonesia and RMI's involvement in promoting a holistic approach to watershed management in the area.
2. It describes RMI's projects on river and biodiversity conservation in the watershed since 2009 and their role in facilitating the watershed forum since 2011.
3. A key benefit of the forum and holistic approach is that it allows different stakeholders to have input, acknowledges their different needs, and leads to more comprehensive management plans that address issues like land rights and education.
Food security exists when all people have reliable physical, social, and economic access to sufficient nutritious food to live an active and healthy life. Food security has three key pillars - availability, which examines if coordination of land and water governance improves food availability; access, which looks at if systems and policies enable access to available food; and utilization, which considers if acquired food can be properly used. Any assessment of food security must consider the specific context.
The document summarizes the implementation of the AU Assembly Declaration on land issues in Africa. It discusses Africa's commitments to land governance including frameworks, guidelines, and declarations adopted between 2009-2014.

Going forward, it emphasizes advocacy, capacity building, partnerships, and institutionalizing the conference to set a common research and policy agenda on African land issues.
Are current land and water governance systems fit for purpose in promoting su...Global Water Partnership
This document summarizes the results of a study on whether current land and water governance systems in sub-Saharan Africa are suitable for promoting sustainable and equitable large-scale agricultural investments. The study analyzed systems in 6 countries and found that in all countries, land and water are governed separately without coordination. Within countries, multiple inconsistent property rights regimes exist. The study also found a lack of clarity and enforcement of water access and use rights for investments. It concludes that coordinated land and water governance systems are needed that recognize all rights, have clear planning, pricing, and dispute resolution, and improve legal and institutional reforms and monitoring.
Ecosystem services mapping as a framework for integrated natural resource man...Global Water Partnership
This document discusses integrated natural resource management in South Africa. It notes that while South Africa has comprehensive environmental laws and increasing budgets for management, assessments show many ecosystems are threatened. This is due to a lack of holistic planning, failure to consider resource value, poor coordination, and inadequate local capacity. The document proposes using an ecosystem services approach to integrate natural systems, social needs, and economic factors. It presents a case study applying this framework in UThukela District through tools like social simulation, scenario analysis, and economic incentives to match interventions with drivers of environmental change. Key to success are effective stakeholder consultation, institutional coordination, and an appropriate governance structure.
The document discusses agricultural irrigation development in Burkina Faso. It notes that Burkina Faso has developed over 42,973 hectares of irrigated land as of 2013, up from 13,043 hectares in 2000. The irrigation techniques discussed include major irrigation schemes near dams covering over 1,000 hectares each, medium schemes from 20-100 hectares, and small-scale irrigation under 100 hectares using various water sources. Crops grown include rice as well as dry season gardening. The development of irrigated agriculture is aimed to increase food production and farmers' incomes in Burkina Faso.
This document discusses the need for coordinated governance of land and water resources to address food security challenges. As population and demand for food increases, business as usual approaches to managing land and water separately will lead to crossing planetary boundaries for water use and loss of agricultural land. Coordinated governance considers land and water as an integrated system and establishes interrelations in their management at various scales from local to national to regional levels. This helps overcome barriers like sectors working in isolation, improves resource use efficiency, and leads to more coherent policies that secure access to both land and water for improved food production.
Community/farmers-led land and water governance - An experience from NepalGlobal Water Partnership
This document discusses community-led land and water governance experiences in Nepal. It finds that farmer-managed irrigation systems irrigate 70% of agricultural land and produce 40% of Nepal's food. However, private land ownership and control of irrigation systems by government bureaucracies have negatively impacted small farmers and food security. The experience of CSRC shows that by supporting land rights and establishing people's organizations, farmers in Nepal have successfully developed local frameworks to manage land and water resources, diversified production, and increased yields over 5 times through small-scale, community-led irrigation projects.
