Purpose
The governance theme of the GWF project "Prairie Water" assesses the current state of prairie governance and its representativeness of public and stakeholder water needs. It also assesses components of water sharing relationships and those components that influence cooperation among communities to co-produce solutions to water issues. This work is done through three major projects: (A) Flood Risk Planning in Mistawasis Nêhiyawak, (B) Source Water Planning and Sharing Water Stories in the North Saskatchewan River Basin, and (C) Exploring Decision-Making in Water Management using Experimental Decision Laboratories.
Plain Language Summary
The data for the Prairie Water Governance theme involves both qualitative and quantitative data. It includes: interview and focus group recordings, photos survey responses, decision lab choices, and fuzzy cognitive maps.
