The Watershed Development Approach Sample Clauses

The Watershed Development Approach. The MYAP is using a watershed approach for programming activities across all SOs, and some strengths and weaknesses in the approach emerged from the experience of the MYAP. The approach is consistent with the physical context in Burundi with livelihoods oriented around a marais and the need to manage both hillsides and lowlands to maximize the benefits from the marais. It is also compatible with the social context, with people living on collines in Burundi. The watershed approach with an intensive integrated strategy can produce clear, visible results to show what is possible to achieve in development. The approach has presented challenges for Commune Administration for planning since they now have some collines that are further developed then others and have to use somewhat different approaches to mobilizing resources. Similarly, for building local level community development planning capacities at the Commune level, working in only some collines in a commune makes it difficult to develop planning capacities at the commune level. Targeting drift31 must be monitored more closely in a watershed approach since local leaders and other power holders will be engaged in the program and could hijack activities to their own personal benefit.
