The VBDC-V3 project: context
Integrated Management
of
Small Reservoirs
for
Multiple Uses

Context (1)
Water rights and water access at the catchment level
Water governance
Payment for environmental services
Broader water-related policy issues
Crop-aquaculture systems
CPWF1 + BFP: emerging themes
Rainwater harvesting and rainwater management
Crop-livestock systems and livestock water productivity
Multiple-use systems at the community level
Integrated land and water management
Small reservoirs and other small water infrastructure in dryland areas
Wastewater management for peri-urban food systems

Context (2)
through
(specific) Basin Development Challenges
and
- establishing basin-level programs
- promoting an integrated research, innovations and impact strategy
- creating Topic Working Groups to ensure knowledge sharing
Towards CPWF2: main outputs…
To demonstrate ways to alleviate poverty by increasing farmers income
To identify ways to enhance resilience to change driven by external forces

The VBDC-V3 project: objectives
of
Small Reservoirs
for
Multiple Uses

Building on
past
experience
Objectives (1)

• The context
– small reservoirs (small, numerous, scattered, network…)
– multiple users for multiple uses (diversity, co-occurrence,…)
– quantities and qualities of water (requirements, impacts,…)
– conflicts (management, governance,…)
• The expectations
– The V3 project will develop integrated management options to
enhance productivity & ensure equitable allocation of water resources.
– It will identify uses and users, assess their needs, clarify social and
ecological determinants, control health consequences.
– For individual small reservoirs considered within their biophysical
contexts and their economical dynamics.
Objectives (2)

Uses require water (quantity and quality)
Uses impact the resource (quantity and quality)
There exist trade-off between impacts and requirements
That determine the nature of available resources
Water Uses and Users

Impacts

Integrated managements
Processes studies
Local scale
Objectives (3)

Integrated management aim at several objectives:
– Perpetuating infrastructures
– Protecting / improving water quality for various uses
– Reaching / enhancing water productivity potentials
– Seeking for equity
Objectives that need
Knowledge on processes at the adequate scales
– (e.g.) Catchment for local physical processes
– (e.g.) Ecosystems connectivity for local ecological processes
– (e.g.) Market opportunities for local economic processes
– …
Objectives (4)

Knowledge on processes in their dynamics
– (e.g.) monitoring and field analyses
– (e.g.) experimental approaches
– (e.g.) simulation games
– …
Objectives (5)

Knowledge on processes in their contexts
– (e.g.) diachronic analyses (temporal evolution)
– (e.g.) synchronic analyses (spatial diversity)
– (e.g.) prospective analyses
– …
Objectives (6)

Objectives to be compared and discussed with
Stakeholder’s perceptions and expectations

The VBDC-V3 project: lessons
of
Small Reservoirs
for
Multiple Uses

Lessons (1)
Interactions with other Vi projects
- existing with V4 and V5
- nearly zero with V1 and V2
Interactions within V3
- no “team spirit” (not a crew but an assemblage of interests)
- Boura as exception? (forthcoming synthesis)

Lessons (2)
V3 design
- too complex (lack of integrative framework/model for
the aggregation of pluridisciplinary results collected)
- too ambitious (lack of time)
VA animation
- not enough (absence of cross-fertilization)
- not adapted (proactivity in an adaptive management context)

Lessons (3)
Delivery of results
- communication before validation (ethics/impact)
CPWF pressure
- understandable (from research: ‘Outcome Logic Models’ …)
- but excessive (… toward extension: ‘Impact Pathways’)

The VBDC-V3 project: recommendations
of
Small Reservoirs
for
Multiple Uses

‘‘The challenge lies not merely in reducing vulnerability [against
Climate Change] but also in getting the structures in place so
governments and investors can tackle adaptation in the most
effective manner possible.
The good news is we can improve lives today while building the
crucial infrastructure needed for tomorrow.’’
Recommendations (1)

IPI: Improving the Performances of Irrigation
CWB: Closing the Water Balance (of Small Reservoirs)
RDCS: Replicating and Diversifying Case Studies
