By collating knowledge on groundwater management experiences and translating them into science-policy dialogues, this project has produced a series of in-depth case studies and action plans on selected problem aquifers aiming to build the capacities of managers and decision makers, strengthen awareness on groundwater governance and contribute to finding solutions and mitigation measures to the groundwater crisis in the region.</div><div class="field-contact-person"><h2 class="label-above">Contact Person</h2>Closas, Alvar and &lt;a.closas@cgiar.org&gt; and McCartney, Matthew &lt;m.mccartney@cgiar.org&gt;</div><div class="field-lead-center"><h2 class="label-above">Lead Center</h2><article about="/content/international-water-management-institute-iwmi" typeof="sioc:Item foaf:Document" class="ds-1col node node-partner node-teaser view-mode-teaser clearfix"> <figure><a href="/content/international-water-management-institute-iwmi"><img typeof="foaf:Image" src="https://wle.cgiar.org/sites/default/files/styles/partners_logo/public/Logos/partner-logos/198fbe5f-iwmi-logo-300.jpeg?itok=z-gilyan" width="190" height="100" alt="IWMI logo" /></a></figure><div class="content"><h3><a href="/content/international-water-management-institute-iwmi">International Water Management Institute (IWMI)</a></h3></div></article> </div><div class="field-partners"><h2 class="label-above">Partners</h2>BAU - Beirut Arab University, ICBA - International Center for Biosaline Agriculture, INRGREF - Institut National de Recherches en Génie Rural, Eaux et Forêts, IWMI - International Water Management Institute, LISODE - Lien social et décision, UoJ - University of Jordan</div><div class="metadata-field field-date"><strong class="label-above">Completed</strong></div><div class="metadata-field field-date"><strong class="label-above">Start/End date</strong><time><span class="date-display-start" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2013-10-01T00:00:00-07:00">October 01, 2013</span> — <span class="date-display-end" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2017-04-30T00:00:00-07:00">April 30, 2017</span></time></div><div class="metadata-field field-research-theme"><strong class="label-above">Research Theme</strong><a href="/research/themes/variability-risks-and-competing-uses">Variability, Risks and Competing Uses</a></div><div class="metadata-field field-cluster"><strong class="label-above">Cluster</strong><div class="textformatter-list"><a href="/cluster/42-managing-competing-uses-and-trade-offs">4.2 Managing Competing Uses and Trade-offs</a></div></div><div class="metadata-field field-countries"><strong class="label-above">Countries</strong><div class="textformatter-list"><a href="/country/jordan">Jordan</a>, <a href="/country/lebanon">Lebanon</a>, <a href="/country/oman">Oman</a>, <a href="/country/tunisia">Tunisia</a></div></div> Tue, 07 Jul 2015 21:26:00 +0000 wle_admin 7500 at https://wle.cgiar.org https://wle.cgiar.org/project/groundwater-governance-arab-world-taking-stock-and-addressing-challenges#comments
