CIWA 2.0: A Decade of Cooperation on Climate-Resilient Development

CIWA 2.0

CIWA supports the provision of regional public goods for prosperity on a livable planet. Cooperation on
transboundary waters management is a prerequisite for achieving such key regional public go ods as
conflict prevention, biodiversity protection, and climate resilience and for delivering on the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) for economic development, poverty reduction, and human health. Regional
challenges (e.g., climate change, population growth, migration) that put pressure on regional public

goods require regional solutions.

What remains the same

CIWA seeks to enable countries to use their transboundary water resources
productively and equitably, protect people and property from water-related shocks,
and ensure sustainability of the resource. CIWA advocates for cooperative approaches
to managing shared risks and sharing socioecon omic benefits, which presents
countries with opportunities to reduce resource-related conflict and strengthen
regional integration, all of which contribute to sustainable economic growth, poverty
reduction, and resilience to climate change.

The program development objective is to strengthen cooperative management and
development of international waters in Sub-Saharan Africa for sustainable climate-
resilient growth.

CIWA’s regional outcomes and related CIWA's vision indicators are the same: (i)
reduced risk of resource-related conflict, (ii) improved cooperation, (iii) greater
economic integration, (iv) people and businesses using water resources to meet
their needs, (v) greater resilience to floods, droughts, and other water-linked harms,
and (vi) sustainably and equitably used water for the good of the environment and
people.

The definition of PDO indicators is unchanged, however, they will be further
disaggregated by types of investments and their outcomes. For example, if reporting
on a mobilized watershed rehabilitation investment, CIWA will include the estimate
of hectares of protected terrestrial or aquatic areas and track climate resilience
outcomes.

The 2.0 Results Framework will continue to represent all 2017 intermediate results
indicators (although not necessarily verbatim) ; however, methodologies, definitions,
and disaggregation are changed.

CIWA recipient-executed operations will continue to dominate the portfolio.
