Presentation transcript:

Healthy Waters Magdalena River Basin Working Together towards Whole-River Solutions

 80% of the GDP.  Water for 30 million people.  75% of the agricultural production.  90% of coffee production.  70% hydropower.  Majority of the ecosystems of the region.  250 species of fish; 50% endemic.  800 species of birds; 183 migrants.

The Problems Fragmented planning, decision making and management without an integrated vision. Unsustainable practices. Vulnerable to extreme hydrologic events- Climate change.

Vision  Integrated River Basin Management reduces climate risk, and preserves nature and ecosystem services for 35 million people Outcome  National government and local stakeholders adopt EBA and green infrastructure approaches as part of Integrated River Basin Management strategy

Río LEAD: Magdalena River Basin: A national priority

Working with key audience (national/regional/local) from the very beginning. Identify the key audience and processes that could help us to accomplish our outcomes efficiently. Choose few messages and present them consistently and persistently. Keep an open communication and provide support to their processes and interests. Identify and promote long term mechanisms to enable the continuity of the process despite possible changes. Good practices to success ….
