Knowledge capture

� BFP data sources

o National ministries (Water, Agriculture), Water boards

o Basin authority

o Research groups: Agrhymet, IRD, CRU, SEDAC, IPPC

o Existing databases: FAOSTAT, DHS Survey, SIEREM

� BFP data format

o Time series, tables, graphs

o Articles, grey literature

o Maps, GIS layers

Knowledge capture

� Associated issues

o Confidentiality and payment

o Resolution

o Scope (time & space)

o Compatibility, Homogeneïty

o Quality/fiability

Knowledge organisation

o Confidentiality levels

– Varying levels for varying categories of users

Page 12

BFP NIGER - Jean Charles CLANET & Andrew OGILVIE – IRD/G-EAU

Knowledge sharing & Impact

� Why and for whom?o During the project

– For homogeneïty across Work Packages (&BFPs): website, wiki, bluedocs

– For visibility: website

o Beyond the project– For reference & information: website– For recommendations to:

– CPWF community– Regional level (ECOWAS)– Countries– Basin authority– NGOs/CBOs/CSOs– Farmers– Research centres, universities– Donors, investors…

Page 13

BFP NIGER - Jean Charles CLANET & Andrew OGILVIE – IRD/G-EAU

Knowledge sharing & Impact

� Dissemination and upscaling

o “Passive”

– Website (but need to attract them first) & database

– Reports (read?)

– Articles

o “Active” – distributed, targeted dissemination

– Workshops, meetings (scientific, political, IWRM)

– Synthesis reports, maps as DVD/interactive GIS/atlas

– Training – professional and higher education

– Posters, billboards, flyers

– Local media (TV, radio)…?

BFP NIGER - Jean Charles CLANET & Andrew OGILVIE – IRD/G-EAU

Knowledge sharing & Impact

� Associated issues

o Content according to target group (role, interest to them, level of understanding, age)

o Language

o Visual messages

o Consistency/concerted efforts across the scale

o Time and money…
