In 2021 and 2022, the Global Water Partnership (GWP) Tanzania supported the Ministry of Water in Tanzania to develop an IWRM Action Plan. The Ministry identified the Wami-Ruvu basin as a priority basin for the development of an Action Plan. Specifically, work packages including strategic actions were formulated in collaboration with the Wami-Ruvu Basin Water Board as part of appropriate IWRM responses to some of the prevailing challenges in water resources management in Wami-Ruvu Basin. The result is an Action Plan consisting of four work packages.
This strategic action is part of the work package on knowledge management at basin organisation level. This strategic action will contain different steps, including: development of an action plan on knowledge management at each level; capturing innovation and learning in the field by project activities; harvesting of stories for dissemination by translating raw data into meaningful knowledge products; sharing of relevant information and knowledge on lessons, results and impact; assisting the respective river basin or IWRM institution on media related issues such as media engagement of journalists; collecting relevant data for knowledge management and developing an overall framework that guides knowledge management; active promotion of the knowledge agenda within and beyond the team.
