About the project: There is need to upscale A-IWRM approaches in South Africa in catchments that are most at risk from degradation, e.g. the Olifants catchment. Working with the SARChI Chair in Ecosystems Health at UL, the IWR will expand its contributions to A-IWRM development in the Olifants. The IWR will also partner with the RU Chairs and the SARChI Chair in Systems Analysis at Wits in the Tsitsa catchment to develop transdisciplinary capacity building, monitoring and governance approaches for catchment wide governance shifts. Here the IWR will research and support transdisciplinary governance system development across traditional and modern institutional activity systems.
A third contribution of the IWR to the CoP will be to contribute knowledge on the scaling of transformative social learning and transdisciplinary sustainable development actions within complex social-ecological systems perspectives to a wider network of African river systems and partners via the IWRs leading role in the ARUA CoE in Water.
The IWR’s contribution in the CoP will result in policy outcomes (on AIWRM and catchment governance), science outcomes (principles and methods for water quality and flow assessments and transdisciplinary water science), and practice outcomes (tools and resources for improved water quality management and governance). All of these outcomes contribute to sustainable development actions related to clean water (SDG 6), but also address other SDGs, especially SDG 17.
