1. Lessons learnt on scaling-up multiple-use water services Barbara van Koppen International Water Management Institute

2. 1 2 1 Andes (Colombia & Bolivia) 2 Limpopo (Zimbabwe & South Africa) 3 Nile (Ethiopia) 3 4 Indus-Ganges (India & Nepal) 5 Mekong (Thailand) 4 5 Lessons from the Learning Alliances of the ‘MUS project’ of the Challenge Program Water and Food

3. This presentation Project focus on Homestead-scale MUS Community-scale MUS Scaling-up by five water stakeholder groups Water users, CBOs, and local private service providers NGOs Domestic sector Productive sector Local government

4. Homestead-scale MUS 50-100 lpcd; 5 lpcd safe ‘most MDG per drop’ health labour saving, gender resilient food and income…...from livestock..from fish..from enterprise..from crops

6. Community-scale MUS Multiple sources, shared infrastructure, re-use People’s participation for livelihoods and sustainability

7. 1. Water users, CBOs Own investments and innovations for self-supply and local management have always been for MUS Seeking to integrate fragmented professional support Communal self-supply in peri-urban Cochabamba, Bolivia Farmer Wisdom Network N.E. Thailand Water for Food Movement South Africa

8. 2. NGOs MUS increasingly obvious for livelihoods goals Technological innovation homestead-&community-scale MUS Institutionalizing MUS in government for sustainability and upscaling Mvuramanzi, Zimbabwe CRS, Adi Daero basin, Ethiopia IDE, Nepal

9. 3. Domestic sector Targeting everybody, including the poor, and homesteads Single-use expertise on health Expertise on engineering and management for small-scale uses Claiming unplanned livelihood benefits Recognizing higher design norms for anticipated expansion Future planning for higher service levels, with 5 lpcd safe Moving up from ‘add-ons’ to community-scale MUS Cinara, PAAR, Colombia IDE, Jalswarajya/Aple Pani Maharashtra

10. 4. Productive sector Expertise on productive end-uses at fields and direct access (crops, soils, markets, livestock, fisheries) Expertise on engineering and management for larger-scale uses and water resources management Recognizing the homestead as a site of pro-poor and gender- equitable productive water uses, besides domestic uses Moving from ‘irrigation add-ons’ to community-scale MUS

11. 5. Local government Permanent democratic interface to match communities’ needs with fragmented support Developing implementation capacity for iterative community-scale MUS (e.g. SADC seven steps approach) AWARD, South Africa, integrating MUS in municipal Integrated Development Plans

12. In sum Opportunities for Scaling-up MUS Water users, CBOs and NGOs: Community-scale MUS for livelihoods Homestead-scale MUS a likely priority Domestic and productive sectors: Merging resources and expertise on engineering and management across sites and scales; Providing single-use expertise according to people’s priorities Local government: the coordinator
