Report of the Third External Program and Management Review (EPMR) of the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) - CGIAR
The world faces a growing list of challenges associated with the management of its scarce water resources. Those challenges largely arise because of temporal, spatial and social variations in the supply of water as the demands for water for agricultural, domestic, industrial and environmental purposes steadily grow. Addressing the challenges requires research effort at multiple levels: local through global, basic through applied, upstream through downstream, private through public, etc . In this multi dimensional space, IWMI has identified its research niche as being holistic and hence interdisciplinary, international, basin‐scale focused and public good orientated. This niche has evolved considerably since the last EPMR under the guidance of the current Director General. IWMI has taken into account changes in the research community’s understanding of the issues underpinning the world water challenge, the strategic direction taken by the CGIAR, funding circumstance s and the capacities and requirements of its partners.
