• How basin coordinators/teams and
theme/topic leaders will help you to
stay on track.

3. Some points to remember…
• The CPWF is not (just) a funding
mechanism.

• It is a research for development

achieving something.
• The CPWF s objective is: “To increase the
CPWF’s To
productivity of water for food and livelihoods,
in a manner that is environmentally
sustainable and socially acceptable.”
• This is not a rhetorical objective.

4. The master plan
• All CPWF projects fit into
the underbelly of the
BFPs.
• There is a two-way
interaction b t
i t ti between
BFPs and our research
projects.
• Only in combination
(BFPs + projects) can we
get the change we want
want.
• BFPs play a key role in
defining the change we
want.

6. What is impact?
• A positive change in behavior.
• If the CPWF is successful, then we
should see greater water productivity,

• BFPs need to know in what way that
they contribute to achieving this
change…
• Hence impact pathways
Hence, pathways…

7. What delivers the change?
• Partnerships…
• Which are collections of contacts that
serve specific strategic, impact,

• Partners tend to be ‘next users’ as
opposed t ‘end users’.

9. Choosing next users
• What kind of impact potential do they
possess?
• With what kind of product will you

• How does it need to be ‘packaged’?
• Is the product obviously useful?
• Are they willing?

10. With what shall I mend it…?
• Products.
• Do you have a good idea of what
products your BFP will deliver?

• How will it be delivered? Workshops,
publications?

coordinator?

11. Phase 2 basins and topics
• The proposed approach is to have
basins take more leadership in
identifying desired change and

in basins.

12. Topics
Learning from Phase 1 research, 4 topics
have been identified:
1. Improving rain water management

2. Multiple use systems

3. Benefit sharing
4. Drivers and process of change

13. What can you do for basins/
y
CPWF?
• Provide a platform to define the change
we’re looking to achieve.
g
QuickTime™ and a

• Use this platform to develop focused and
realistic research questions likely to have
+impact
• Commence the development of impact
pathways for your basin (Mon-Tues) to be
further developed with the support of BCs

14. How can you help us? (cont)
• Using these IPs, think about:
– What change should we be aiming for?
– What research is needed to get us
there?
QuickTime™ and a
decompressor
are needed to see this picture. – What research products do we need to
effect the change?
– Who do we need to bring into the
discussion or influence to gain the
change?

15. How can basin
Coordinators/Impact leaders
help you?
Help you identify next users;
Have networks through which p
g products
QuickTime™ and a
decompressor
can be channeled;

Have access to CPWF design, web and
other packaging capabilities;
Have access to scientific, impact and
other quality-based support;
To identify and inform you of
opportunities.
