Abstract

Transformative Scenario Planning (TSP) offers a neutral space for stakeholders to present their views, and construct a shared understanding of the situation and the actions they can take to address it.

Forty stakeholder representatives of Jalna district – farmers, landless, poor, women, members of the Grampanchayat, farmer movements, government officials, water sector scientist, academic institutions, college students, NGOs and media – voiced their varied concerns and perspectives about the water situation in Jalna.
