- Description: This project emerged from two previous Water Research Commission (WRC) research projects. In 2006 Heila Lotz-Sisitka and Jane Burt (Lotz-Sisitka, 2006) undertook research on participation in the establishment of integrated water resources management (IWRM) structures. They found that while much emphasis had gone into the establishment of water re-sources management structures, very little attention was being given to building people’s capacity to participate effectively in these structures. Access to and the ability to make use of knowledge resources about wa-ter resources management is a key aspect of such capacity building.

- Description: The report explores what is meant by social research and introduces a synthetic, interdisciplinary framework for water research that side steps the ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ science debate by demonstrating how different disci-plines help us understand different layers of reality when dealing with complex challenges.
