Workpackage 5

 

Work Package 5 (WP5): Development of integrated generic tool

Start date or starting event: Month 27

Objectives and input to workpackage

  • The objective of this workpackage is to bring together the results obtained from the previous 4 workpackages (WP1 to WP4) to produce the guidelines and basic building blocks for a generic integrated management tool. The task will combine the stakeholder and network aspects of the work into an integrated methodology that can be applied to any catchment anywhere in Europe, and indeed anywhere in the world.

Methodology / Description of work

  • The University of Castilla La Mancha will lead this workpackage, which will start at month 27. There will be contributions from all partners. The task will bring together all the elements of the previous workpackages to produce a set of guidelines to construct a generic integrated management tool.

  • The objective will be achieved through a series of meetings between all partners where the lessons learned from each of the case studies will be taken into account. At these meetings a series of questions will need to be posed. For example, can we use the same format for stakeholder meetings in all countries or do cultural and social difference mean that regional variations in approach have to be considered? If so, this needs to be highlighted in the final guidelines. A further question may seek to establish whether there are any common variables and links in each of the networks.

  • By examining the experience of all the case studies a comprehensive set of guidelines to set up a generic integrated management tool that will be applicable throughout Europe will emerge. The case studies themselves will be included in the final package as worked examples of how this tool can successfully be applied.
