Dr Matthew Weaver is a postdoctoral fellow and Capacity Development (CapDev) Coordinator for the Tsitsa Project (TP). His work passion lies in engaged research that promotes social learning and participatory governance in natural resource management contexts. His previous work and research experience focused on enabling social and transformative learning in relation to participatory water governance. As a CapDev coordinator he supports, develops and run capacity development initiatives for the Titsa Project. Much of this work is in collaboration with other Communities of Practice (CoPs). For example, together with the Governance, Fire And Grazing, Systems CoP and LIMA they developed and ran a Capacity Development training course for community-based monitors employed by the Tsitsa Project. The next exciting endeavor is to run a National-level online course to build social learning facilitation capacity of TP members and other South African stakeholders interested in learning processes.
