- Description: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has disrupted socio-economic activities, including formal and non-formal education, across the world at lightning speed. By mid-April 2020, it had interrupted the formal education of nearly 1.6 billion students in 192 countries. COVID-19’s disruption of education in Africa, and especially in southern Africa, has been severe for several reasons. However, educational responses to COVID-19 suggest that it has stimulated the appetite for developing educational innovations – silver linings to the COVID-19 cloud. This paper is based on interviews conducted with 56 parents, students and educators involved in formal and non-formal education in Botswana, Malawi, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. We identified the main educational challenges in these countries as being concerned with adapting to: (i) online education and learning, (ii) continuity of education from home, and (iii) community-based learning in small groups. The silver linings that we identified are: (i) putting greater emphasis on finding context-specific solutions to education and health problems (improvisation), which is important for educational relevance and reveals the value of local actors, (ii) making linkages between social and ecological systems clearer, which is making the value of education for sustainable development (ESD) in this century more explicit, and (iii) revealing structural inequality and justice issues in education, which draws attention to the need for urgently addressing them as part of transformative change in education and sustainable development.

- Description: Drawing on the working lives of popular educators who are striving for socioeconomic and socio-ecological justice, we demonstrate how popular education is a form of care work which is feminised, often undervalued and unrecognised as highly skilled work. It is relational work that aims to forge solidarity with communities and the environment. Given the state of the planet, the radical transformations that are needed, and the future projection of ‘work’ as including the care economy in large measure, we argue that popular education is a generative site for further exploration of research into work and learning. However, to move popular education as work from the margins means to rethink the current economic system of value. Addressing the contradiction that undervalues work for life/living, popular education engages transformative action motivated by a deep sense of solidarity and a focus on imagining alternatives as an act of hope.

- Description: This paper describes how Changing Practice courses, developed by environmental activists in South Africa and based on social learning practice, have seeded cognitive justice action. For the educator-activists who facilitated these courses, it became apparent that we needed a bold emancipatory pedagogy which included cognitive justice issues. This enabled us and the activist-researcher participants to understand the extent to which local, indigenous, and spiritual knowledge had been excluded from water governance. The paper investigates how participants in the ‘Water and Tradition’ change project, established by the Vaal Environmental Justice Alliance (VEJA, engaged with cognitive justice, to demonstrate how African spiritual practice offers a re-visioning of the natural world. Finally, using the tools of critical realist theory, the paper reviews how VEJA bring about transformative social action through their participation in the Changing Practice course.

- Description: This is an account of the emancipatory struggle that faces agents who seek to change the oppressive social structures associated with neo-liberalism. We begin by ‘digging amongst the bones’ of the calls for resistance that have been declared dead or assimilated/co-opted by neoliberal theorists. This leads us to unearth, then utilize, Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed, Steve Biko’s Black Consciousness and Shiv Visvanathan's ideas; which are examples of Roy Bhaskar’s transformative dialectic. We argue, using examples, that cognitive justice – a concept common to each of our chosen theorists – is vital in enabling emancipatory social learning. By embracing cognitive justice, the agents gained confidence, which led to their increased ability to champion community and non-academic knowledge. It also uncovered structural tensions – attendant in neoliberalism – around privilege. By articulating these tensions, the participants were able to ‘come closer together’. Such processes, initiated by ensuring cognitive justice, are possible steps in achieving universal solidarity; which is likely to be a necessary step along the path of achieving emancipation.

The world has never been so populated by humans and never before have the spe-cies ‘human’ influenced and manipulated the natural world in the way in which we do now. Academics are calling it the age of the Anthropocene. In the age of the Anthropocene we face different challenges to what hu- mans faced centuries ago. As we find ourselves in this new age we have had to not only question ‘what we know’ but also ‘how we know’ and whether the ‘how we know’ is the right kind of ‘how’ for the problems that we face today. This has led to a questioning of the way in which we generate knowledge and the way in which this knowledge is used. This critique is not aimed at all knowledge generation it is mostly a frustration that has arisen out of the physical and biological sciences with the realisation that doing good science is just not enough to bring about meaningful change in the world. Trans-disciplinary scientists and practitioners have begun this journey in search of a new kind of science - A science in service of society! This tourist trip will re- trace the few first steps of these emerging ideas so that we can understand where these new ideas have come from and how they may influence our own research. , This document was developed for a postgraduate course on Transdisciplinary research held at Rhodes University. It explores three key theoretical approaches to transdisciplinarity in relation to the question 'Why TD?'.

- Description: This chapter describes the use of Bhaskar’s lamination to make sense of the vast literature on collective action. The liter-ature review in the chapter was part of a broader study that in-vestigated collective action as essential for attaining the princi-ples of equity and sustainability set out in the post-apartheid South African Water Act. A laminated analysis of the literature revealed important insights such as: when dealing with collec-tive action we need to appreciate that all the levels of reality are acting simultaneously on a given context and cannot be resolved in isolation; collective action is inhibited or con-strained at different levels and scales by different things; and collective action is not suspended in a fixed context and can-not be encouraged by following a set formula. These insights point to the importance of learning to adapt as a core principle of collective action. Drawing on this research and experience of how collective action can be supported or inhibited gives insight into understanding our current limitations in supporting collective action and in understanding the kinds of collective action encounters that are occurring in catchments in South Africa. These understandings have implications for how we consider learning, and the potential contributions of learning-led change.This chapter describes the use of Bhaskar’s lamination to make sense of the vast literature on collective action.

- 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: Those of us who work in water resource management have found that very few knowledge/research resources are accessible to most people. This happens because resources are not disseminated properly (or at all), or because they are inappropriately technicist, or because potential readers are hampered by low education. What is the best way to make water research accessible to as many people as possible and especially to people whose lives would be affected by the research? In the early 1980s an attempt was made to address this issue when Robert Berold edited People's Workbook (EDA 1981), a user-friendly book that presented basic technical information for rural people – not only on water, but also on agriculture, health, building construction, and income generation. The book included real-life interviews, and was disseminated by rural fieldworkers. Perhaps because there was nothing like it at the time, it was enormously popular.

Integrating environmental flow requirements into a stakeholder driven catchment management process

- Description: South Africa's National Water Act (NWA no 36 of 1998) recognizes the need for environmental protection through the ecological Reserve, defined in the Act as the quantity and quality of water required to protect aquatic ecosystems in order to secure ecologically sustainable development through the constrained use of the relevant water resource. Further more the NWA stipulates that the allocation of licenses to new water users, or the granting of increased water use to established water users, can only take place once the the Reserve for the river has been determined and approved by the Minister. This means that water users' needs (beyond those required for basic human needs) take second place behind the environment. Whether or not the inclusion of the ecological Reserve in South Africa's water legislation leads to sustainable use of South Africa's water resources depends on its successful implementation. This in turn depends on the will of both the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry (DWAF), the implementing agent, and the end water users who need to be convinced of the priority given to environmental needs. In this paper we look at the process of implementing the ecological Reserve in the Kat Valley in the Eastern Cape of South Africa as part of a stakeholder driven process of developing a water allocation plan for the catchment that prioritized participation by water users. The extent to which DWAF and the water users expedited or thwarted the process is examined in the light of national and international calls for local-level participation in water resource management processes.

- Description: This report describes the development of water resource management organisations (institutions) in the Kat River Valley from 1997 to 2006. The two organisations described here – the Kat River Valley Water User Association and the Kat River Catchment Forum – are given separate narratives for the sake of clarity, although they developed in close association. Both these organisations were nurtured and supported as a result of a research process by members of the Catchment Research Group (CRG) from the Department of Geography at Rhodes University. Funding came largely through the Water Research Commission (WRC).

- Description: As indicated in Chapter 1, the expected outputs of this research are guidelines for best practice, and a set of indicators for monitoring and evaluation of participatory practice in CMA establishment. Chapter 1 indicated that participatory practice in CMA establishment in South Afri-ca is located in a particular social context: that of institution building in a democratising society (where the models of democracy may not be clearly articulated or well understood amongst South African citizens), in response to new national legislation that is based on principles of equi-ty, efficiency and sustainability. This context is further shaped by a his-tory of inequality and lack of broad participation in IWRM. Chapter 1 al-so indicated that IWRM in South Africa crosses political boundaries, is framed within geo-physical boundaries, and is complicated by different governance frameworks for water service delivery and water resources management (where water services delivery is a key priority for people on the ground who have traditionally not had access to water). Water resources management is therefore likely to be a ‘secondary’priority, and the possibility exists that the two needs could be confused amongst those who are to participate in IWRM in South Africa.

- Description: Die Nasionale Waterwet (1998) maak dit moontlik vir gewone mense om deel te neem aan die bestuur van waterhulpbronne. Hierdie boek bespreek wat deelname in die praktyk beteken. Die navorsing vir hierdie boek is tussen 2003 en 2005 gedoen deur ‘n groep deskundiges in die bestuur van water as hulpbron. Die navorsers het tot twee belangrike gevolgtrekkings gekom, naamlik: 1. Hoe ons die konsep ‘deelname’ verstaan, het ‘n direkte invloed op hoe ons water as hulpbron bestuur. Daarom is dit nodig om ons kennis en ervaring van deelname in die bestuur van wa-terhulpbronne te verdiep. 2. Ons het praktiese riglyne nodig wanneer ons deelname in die bestuur van waterhulpbronne beplan, maar hierdie riglyne behoort buigbaar te wees sodat die aard van die deelname by elke situasie of konteks kan aanpas.

- Description: The National Water Act (1998) opens the way for ordinary people to take part in water resource management (WRM). This is a significant move towards a more social orientation and away from an approach that focused almost exclusively on the technical aspects of WRM. This set of two books asks what a social orientation means in practice. Since the National Water Act became law in 1998, how have WRM practitioners involved people in the process of managing water? What have we learnt so far? And how can we use these lessons to move forward? The content of the books is based on research that looked in some depth at national and local participatory practice in South Africa, and also broadly at international trends. The research was conducted by three WRM practitioners and two researchers in the field of participatory approaches.
