    This report is a synthesis of research implemented for the project on Wetlands-based livelihoods in the Limpopo basin: balancing social welfare and environmental security. The research was motivated by the dependency of many people on wetlands for their livelihoods. It was therefore founded on the basis that the potential of wetlands to contribute to livelihoods is closely related to their ability to maintain ecosytem functions (such as regulating river flows), which is a consequence of their unique hydrological characteristics.

    Most African countries underwent water legislation reform since the 1990s, through

    which existing plural legal systems were changed into nation-wide permit systems, in

    which the state acts as custodian of the nation’s water resources. Although globally

    heralded as the best way to manage water resources within the broader context of

    Integrated Water Resource Management, this project examines the problematic

    implications of the new laws for the majority of the rural and peri-urban poor. Since time

    IN response to an on-line survey, 76 project leaders and staff gave CPWF Phase 1 a

    generally favorable review. Respondents came from 68 CPWF projects in 45 countries on

    three continents. The survey sought to help learn what went well in Phase 1, what did not

    go so well and can be improved in Phase 2.

    Nearly three-quarters of respondents felt that they had achieved different research results,

    outcomes and impacts as a result of participation in the CPWF than otherwise possible from

    The Coordination and Change project of the Limpopo Basin Development Challenge (L5) is designed to help the four BDC projects conduct quality, coherent, and problem oriented research to contribute to beneficial change in the basin. L5 will develop and implement a communication and knowledge management strategy to facilitate integration of the major activities; capture, store and distribute relevant data; and identify and address capacity building needs—both within the BDC team—and among key external stakeholders.

    Despite hosting some of the most developed sub Saharan countries, a majority of rural smallholder farmers in the Limpopo basin still live in poverty. The challenge of low and highly variable rainfall together with inadequate technology transfers, inadequate policy and investment context all act to disable successful transitions out of poverty. The CPWF Phase I identified several opportunities to manage rainfall in more efficient and productive manners at field to basin scales.

    The Limpopo Basin is prone to frequent droughts and short season rainfall making agricultural production a very risky enterprise. The need assist to farmers and rural communities to optimize the utilization of low rainwater and existing SWI to boost agricultural productivity, standard of living and reduce poverty.

    This project seeks to define the interplay between market access, crop and livestock technologies, and investment risks in water- and market-scarce environments that leads to technology adoption by farm families, enabling them to enhance food security and incomes through more efficient water use.

    Food and Water Security under Global Change: Developing Adaptive Capacity

    with a Focus on Rural Africa

    The project “Food and Water Security under Global Change: Developing Adaptive

    Capacity with a Focus on Rural Africa” aimed to provide farmers, policymakers,

    and other stakeholders in Ethiopia and South Africa with tools to make better

    adaptive decisions in the face of climate-related risk. The project combined

    household surveys and stakeholder forums, which examined local perceptions of
