Abstract

The ICT-CCW (Climate Change and Water) research agenda stresses a needs-based approach to water security, and that it be people-centric rather than ICT or water-centric. The objective is to examine various aspects of how ICTs can be used to strengthen resilience and adaptive capacities of communities, including the social components that may be key success factors, for example levels of commitment, motivation etc. The report documents research questions, and research needs which arose from the workshop.
