Subject: Solving Land & Water Issues in Africa
Date sent: Mon, 8 May 2000 13:08:29 +0300
Dear All,
I would like to invite you and colleagues in your network, to
participate in a discussion on "Land and Water degradation In Africa".
The goal of this initiative is to build a GEF resource base of experts
and institutions and also gather recommendation for the GEF on the
issue.
The question "what has worked and why ?" is currently being debated
with the view of facilitating replication of good practice and to
assist in the selection of pilot projects. The GEF would like us to
deepen our discussions on success at this stage. The geographical
scope has been broadened now to encompass all developing countries. We
would thus like to revisit this topic on the discussion forum using
the following format.
A - name of project,
B - source of funding
C - Country
D - Lead local institution
E - Scale of operation (local, district, national, regional, basin,
sub-basin etc.) F - Factors which contributed to success ( e.g.,
Policy and regulation framework, institutional arrangement, incentive
structure, scale of implementation, specific capacity building
activities, personal/community commitment etc.)
