Integrated water and wetland management: towards a project approach
AbstractThe management problem of wetlands is the central subject. Integrated water management may be considered a prerequisite for integrated wetland management. An analytical framework for wetland management is presented, based on a distinction between problem field and management field. The problem field is a coherent set of problems, in this case discrepancies between actual wetland qualities and requirements as to its qualities. The management field comprises all the relevant actors and their interventions. Hence, both the actors with a specific management task (the “managers”) and those affecting the wetland by using its resources (the interest groups) are part of the management field.The divergence of wetland characteristics necessitates the selection of a management strategy adapted to the local or regional circumstances. Such a management strategy must be based on characteristics of the problem field and on characteristics of the management network. It may be stated that ineffective management of wetlands therefore results from either: (1) the intricacy of the problem field; (2) the complexity of the management field; or (3) the relation between management field and problem field.A possible solution to this ineffectiveness may be found in an integrated management plan. This can be defined as a policy document in which management objectives are formulated, as well as the outlines of tasks and responsibilities of all actors essential for realizing these objectives. For the present management authorities a project approach may act as a catalyst, as it facilitates the attack of pressing management problems.
