Decision Support Systems, and, more recently, participatory and collaborative modelling have emerged as a response to increased focus on stakeholder participation in activities for certain fields like water resources management. Researchers practitioners frequently use 'buzzwords' such 'participatory modelling' 'collaborative modelling'. In some cases, both terms are used interchangeably, largely due unclear distinction between them literature. This article draws the line by using levels of...
The OECD Principles on Water Governance set out various requirements for stakeholder engagement. Coupled with conceptualizations of social learning, this article asks how we define and enact engagement explores the actual practice stakeholders in three fields water governance. results suggest that a key consideration is purpose engagement, requiring its ethics, process, roles expected outcomes. While facilitators cannot be held accountable if 'fails' terms they are responsible ensuring...
Abstract Participatory modelling has become a growing concept in environmental modelling, as it allows stakeholders to be involved various stages of model development. The majority studies, however, have focused on the participation during use for scenario analysis and strategy evaluation after been developed. Large‐scale community mapping efforts create new opportunities establish, detail improve flood models at development stage by working together with local stakeholders. In this article,...
Ensuring availability and adequate management of water sanitation for all is one the key priorities sustainable development. Integrated Water Resources Management widely considered to be best process securing all. However, implementing it remains a challenge many decision makers practitioners. In this article, we demonstrate an application collaborative modelling enhance inform decisions ensure inclusive process. This approach was applied river basin master plan Pemali Comal River Basin...
The sustainable development agenda 2030 calls for achievement of certain targets to ensure access water and sanitation all. Multi-stakeholder partnerships the use data modelling tools are conditioning elements their achievement. In this article, we demonstrate that participatory supports informed decision making in complex river basins. An adapted companion approach is presented support collective action by reducing disputes enhancing collaboration among stakeholders. co-development...
