IW:LEARN TDA/SAP Training Course Module 1: Introduction to the TDA/SAP Process
2
+ In the following sections you will learn about…. International Waters and why they are important International waters in the context of GEF The TDA/SAP Process TDA/SAP Principles
3
Section 1: GEF and International Waters
4
+ Why are they so important? Nearly half of the world’s population is located within one or more of the 263 international drainage basins shared by two or more states At least 145 nations include territory within international basins At least 21 nations lie in their entirety within international basins 33 countries have greater than 95% of their territory within these basins19 international drainage basins are shared by 5 or more riparian countries The Danube alone has 17 riparian nations The Congo, Niger, Nile, Rhine and Zambezi are shared by between 9 and 11 countries The remaining 13 basins have between 5 and 8 riparian countriesThe 64 LMEs produce 95 % of the world's fish catch Groundwater resources account for more than 100 times the amount of surface water, and cross under at least 273 international borders
5
+ What are International Waters in the context of GEF? GEF International Waters are transboundary water systems These include: River basins where water flows from one country to another Multi-country lake basins Groundwater resources shared by several countries Large marine ecosystems (LME) bounded by more than one nation
6
+ Transboundary Waters…. ….are water systems that are shared between more than one country Transboundary waters cover: Boundary water resources where the boundary between two or more sovereign states is formed by an LME, an international lake or river Successive water resources where an international river (or underground aquifer) flows from one sovereign state to another
7
+ Exercise 1 Why is your water system regionally and globally important? List the key points.

Section 2: The TDA/SAP Process
9
+ What are the Acronyms?
10
+ So what’s the TDA/SAP Process?
11
+ The Analytical Component Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) Technical Analysis of Problems, Impacts, Causes The Strategic Component Strategic Action Programme (SAP) Strategic Thinking, Planning and Implementation
12
+ TDA – The Analytical Component The main technical role of a TDA is to identify, quantify, and set priorities for environmental problems that are transboundary in nature.
13
+ The TDA should aim to: Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis Analyse the institutions, laws, policies and projected inves tments Analyse the causes for each problem Identify & prioritise the transboundary problems Analyse the environmental impacts and socio- economic consequences of each problem
14
+ The TDA – Analysis and Engagement The TDA provides the factual basis for the strategic component of the TDA/SAP Process – strategic thinking, planning and implementation of the SAP The TDA should also be part of a process of engagement and consultation with all the key stakeholders from the initial TDA steps through to the subsequent development of alternative solutions during the formulation of the SAP
15
+ SAP – The Strategic Component The SAP is a negotiated policy document that should be endorsed at the highest level. It establishes clear priorities for action to resolve the priority problems identified in the TDA
16
+ The SAP has 3 key Steps Strategic Thinking: The collaborative development of the key components of the SAP - Vision, Goals Opportunities for Innovation; Options and Alternatives Strategic Planning: National and regional consultation processes; setting strategies for implementation; action planning; developing the draft action plan Implementation: Endorsing the SAP; key implementation steps
17
+ The SAP – Key Elements A well-defined baseline enables a clear distinction between actions with purely national benefits and those addressing transboundary concerns with global benefits. The development of institutional mechanisms at the regional and national levels for implementing the SAP Monitoring and evaluation procedures to measure effectiveness of the outcomes of the process.
18
+ TDA/SAP – Part of an Adaptive Management Cycle
19
+ To Summarise GEF International Waters are transboundary water systems that include river basins, lake basins, groundwater resources, large marine ecosystems (LME) Transboundary waters are water systems that are shared between more than one country TDA/SAP is a strategic process developed for transboundary water systems The main technical role of a TDA is to identify, quantify, and set priorities for environmental problems that are transboundary in nature The SAP is a negotiated policy document that should be endorsed at the highest level. It establishes clear priorities for action to resolve the priority problems identified in the TDA
20
Section 3: TDA/SAP Principles
21
+ In this section you will learn about…. Over-Arching Principles of the TDA/SAP Approach Key Management Principles of the TDA/SAP Approach
22
+ Over-Arching Principles of the TDA/SAP Approach Adaptive Management The Ecosystem Approach Sustainable Development Poverty Reduction Gender Main- streaming Climate Variability and Change Stakeholder consultation and participation
23
+ Key Management Principles of the TDA/SAP Approach Stepwise consensus Building TransparencyAccountability Inter-sectoral Policy Building Donor Partnerships Government Commitment Collaboration
24
+ Exercise 2 Consider carefully: What is a Transboundary Diagnostic analysis (TDA)? What is a Strategic Action Programme (SAP)? Why is the TDA/SAP important to this project?
