  1. CGIAR Challenge Program on Water and Food

  2. 15 years in 3 x 5-year phases – Phase 1 2004-8; Phase 2 2009-13; Phase 3 ? CGIAR Science Council Commentary on Phase 2 Plan - 20 April 2008 “10 years, consistent with “Lessons Learnt on CPs” (Sep 2007)” “there may be value in extending this CP beyond 2 phases, but that should not be anticipated at this stage” CPWF intends that there will be a Phase 3 CPWF aims to: increase productivity of water for food & livelihoods in a manner that is environmentally sustainable & socially acceptable

  3. 9 + others

  4. Projects • 33 “1st call” projects in first round, 3-5 years, $1-2 million from CPWF, starting 2004 • 8 “2nd call” projects started early 2008 • 4 Basin projects started in 2005 – Volta, Mekong, Sao Francisco, Karkeh • 6 Basin projects started early 2008 incl. Limpopo • 12 Small Grant projects (12-18 mths)

  7. Present (2006) estimates of donor contributions 2003 - 2008 Mostly from Europe, similar funding anticipated for Phase 2

  8. Phase 2 2009 – 2013 Qualifiers 1. Liz’s understanding as of 14 June 2009; 2. work in progress CPWF aims to: increase productivity of water for food & livelihoods in a manner that is environmentally sustainable, socially acceptable & alleviates poverty for all disadvantaged groups

  9. CPWF Phase 2 – main changes • Governance – more independent of CGIAR • - small board – 9 – first meeting Sept 08 • - 5 independents (selected by CSC); • - independent chair (George Rothschild) • - 1 CG alliance rep. (IFPRI – Mark Rosegrant) • - 1 IWMI rep (accountable for CPWF – Colin Chartres) • - 1 rep non-CGIAR CSC members • - CPWF program director • Implementation • - program director (Alain Vidal replaces Jonathan Woolley) • - science director (Larry Harrington) • - impact director (Boru Douthwaite) • - assistant director (Sophie Nguyen-Khoa) • - program administrator (Pamela George)

  10. CPWF Phase 2 – main changes • More focussed, targetted • - 6 Basins (Limpopo, Nile, Volta, Ganges, Mekong, Andean “system”) • - 6 Research topics (part time topic leaders?) • - 1-2 “development challenges” per Basin, specific parts of Basin, stakeholder consultation for selecting the challenges (related to the topics – “chicken & egg”)…… • Basin driven research agenda • - “Basin Project” – comprised of 3-5 “projects” • - Basin advisory committee • - Basin Impact leader • - Basin Challenge leader (may come from sub- projects?) • - commissioned & competitively selected projects

  11. Transition – oversighting completion of Phase 1 projects CPMT – Sophie Nguyen-Khoa; Phase 1 Project Supervisors – former TLs 10% Annette Huber-lee SCALES 5 THEMES C.T. Hoanh Sophie Nguyen-Khoa Liz Humphreys Doug White

  12. Focusing the strategy in phase 2 Focusing on the technical content found to be most promising in phase 1 – plus some new areas Focusing even more on research that will begin development impact within the 15 year CPWF time frame All research is interdisciplinary, includes cross-scale analysis and focuses on resilience Phase 2: 2009-2013; intended Phase 3 to 2018

  13. Focusing the strategy in Phase 2 CPWF as the platform for partners to contribute their specialist expertise Seeking to strengthen research for development networks in water & food in each basin that will continue functioning after CPWF finishes in 2018 (part of the “exit” strategy) With expected minimum budget of USD 60 million can handle 1 challenge per basin; aiming for $90 and 2 challenges

  14. Priority development challenges in each basin • Ganges delta • Integrated agriculture & aquaculture • (2. Integrated management of groundwater) • Mekong (especially the “3S” border area Laos-Cambodia-Vietnam)Basin Impact Leader Kim Geheb • Multiple use of reservoirs • (2. Sustainable management of upland agricultural water) • Nile (especially Ethiopian highlands) • 1. A landscape approach to rainwater management • (2. Multiple uses of agricultural wastewater in the Delta) • First challenges (at least 3) to be contracted in 2009

  15. Priority development challenges in each basin • Volta(Burkina Faso/northern Ghana) • Small reservoirs &rainwater management • Andes (7 small basins) • Benefit-sharing mechanisms to improve water productivity & reduce water-related conflict • (2. Strategies for Andean communities to adapt to global change • Limpopo(Mozambique, Zimbabwe, South Africa) • Small reservoirs & rainwater management • First challenges (at least 3) to be contracted in 2009

  16. Flexible cross-basin topic working groups (TWG) in support of basin research Increasing rainwater productivity Multi-purpose water systems www.waterandfood.org Water benefit sharing Global drivers of change Learning to innovate Participation and gender (There will be periodic additions, mergers and deletions) TWG members from Basin project teams working on elements of the Topic

  17. Phase 2 Topic Working groups • Foster cross-basin learning and sharing • Synthesize experiences gained in different basins • Strengthen the science • Apply lessons learned to further improve research in basins • Provide capacity for cross-scale analysis within basins • Iterative learning process

  18. Phase 2 Limpopo • stakeholder workshop in 2nd half of 2009 to develop research plan • CPWF team visit to initiate workshop preparations • workshop 1-2 months later • www.waterandfood.org
