Experience and needs assessment

Diagnostic form for Experience sharing and Needs assessment

The “Diagnostic form for Experience sharing and Needs assessment” represents an opportunity for projects, partners, basin organizations and other stakeholders to identify:

  1. actions that already took place in their basin/aquifer, and that could be shared with the Community, and
  2. possible topics / interventions that may be explored for implementation.

Example of interventions include:

  • Management of groundwater dependent ecosystems / wetlands;
  • Institutional / legal provisions to integrate groundwater in River Basin management;
  • Injection of excess surface water in aquifers - Managed aquifer recharge;
  • Controlling groundwater level to prevent flooding.

Access the Diagnostic form here: MSWord.

A summary of the “Groundwater Clinic”, which addressed the practical needs to raise the profile of groundwater and its governance, undertaken during GEF IWC9 Conference can be found here.
