Comprehensive Assessment of Water Management in Agriculture (CA)

The Comprehensive Assessment of Water Management in Agriculture critically evaluates the benefits, costs, and impacts of the past 50 years of water development, the water management challenges communities are facing today, and solutions people have developed. The assessment is produced by a broad partnership of practitioners, researchers and policy makers, in which a group of GWA members and GWA contacts review the Chapters from a gender-and-diversity perspective. This GWA-group will also produce a thematic gender paper in this programme.

In 2005 GWA agreed upon a programme together with the Comprehensive Assessment of Water Management in Agriculture and Both Ends, with the objective to engender the knowledgebase of CA and the Negotiated Approach of Both Ends, as well as studying the attitude and opinion of water technicians and managers, to learn why available gender manuals and guidelines do not result in the desired change on the ground.
