Global Environment Facility
• Global funding support for worldwide environmental issues since 1992 Earth Summit
• Implemented by UNDP, UNEP & World Bank, with many partners
• International Waters (IW) focal area supports shared aquifers, river basins, lakes, and marine ecosystems

IW Focal Area Approach
• Goal: Assist countries in making changes so the waterbody and its multi-country basin can sustainably support human activities.
• Focus: “Seriously threatened waterbodies” and “most imminent transboundary threats” to ecosystems
• Priority: Changes in sectoral policies and activities
• Financing: Countries’ collaboration to identify priority concerns, baseline and additional actions needed; then (potentially) their commitment to realize additional actions

GEF IW Projects’ Methods
• Conduct Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA)– Transboundary strategic environmental assessment of
priority concerns and underlying human factors
• Develop and Pursue Strategic Action Program (SAP)– Legal framework, adaptive management regime and
actions for each country to address priority concerns
• Invest in sound science and adaptive management– Via technical assistance, capacity building, demonstrations

Key Steps in TDA-SAP Process
1. Development of the project idea
2. Joint fact-finding
3. Preparing the SAP
4. Implementing the SAP

Information Management
• TDA is founded upon solid technical information about water, sociological and ecological processes, status and trends
• SAP monitoring and evaluation, indicators of success measured via (info) indicators
• A process of successive approximation

Public Participation
• Identify and consult with stakeholder groups
• Conduct stakeholder analysis and develop Stakeholder Involvement Plan (SIP)
• Hold stakeholder meeting to review TDA
• Involve stakeholders (as appropriate and feasible) in preparing SAP
![Page 11: Use of Information Management and Public Participation by GEF IW Projects (Dann Sklarew) - Powerpoint - 2mb](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062514/558ec99b1a28ab3d3c8b4598/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Principles of Stakeholder Involvement
• Earth Summit:1. Information access2. Inclusion in decision-making3. Course of redress
• GEF:1. Stakeholder identification2. Info. dissemination3. Consultation…and ideally participation in implementation, monitoring
and evaluation (e.g., advisory committees, grants)
![Page 12: Use of Information Management and Public Participation by GEF IW Projects (Dann Sklarew) - Powerpoint - 2mb](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062514/558ec99b1a28ab3d3c8b4598/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Who are stakeholders?
• In theory: Anyone who impacted by decision or able to prevent decisive action from occurring.
• In practice: Those with “vested interest” in either the issue &/or their relationship with those making the decision(s).
