Water Land and Ecosystem Vision:A world in which agriculture thrives within vibrant ecosystems, where communities have higher incomes, improved food security and the ability to continuously improve their lives
![Page 5: CGIAR Research Program on Water, Land and Ecosystems](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56813419550346895d9b0501/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
CGIAR System Level Outcomes
1. Reduce rural poverty
2. Increase food security
3. Improve nutrition and human health
4. Sustainable management of natural resources
WLE IDO: IncomeIncreased and more equitable income from agricultural
and natural resources management and ecosystem services in rural and peri-urban areas
WLE IDO: ProductivityImproved land, water and energy productivity in rainfed
and irrigated agro-ecosystem
WLE IDO: Risk ManagementIncreased ability of low income communities to adapt to
environmental and economic variability, demographic shifts, shocks and long term changes
WLE IDO: GenderWomen and marginalized groups have decision making
power over and increased benefits derived from agriculture and natural resources.
WLE IDO: EquityIncreased resilience of communities through enhanced
ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes.
Goal: Sustainable intensification of agricultural development

Risk analysis: major decisions affecting agro-ecosystems that support large
numbers of people
Opportunity analysis: research needed to provide alternatives that improve ecosystem
services for human development
Client analysis: decision makers demand research
Niche analysis: limited research available
WLE opportunity
space
In each focal region, WLE is identifying the “opportunity space” for research to support client decision making
WLE integrated portfolio of research is designed to capitalize on this opportunity
![Page 11: CGIAR Research Program on Water, Land and Ecosystems](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032414/56813419550346895d9b0501/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Example of client focus: WLE resource recovery and reuse
Issue: Urban areas are growing and consuming more resources. How do we recover nutrients and water at scale? Technical knowledge is available, but few projects go to scale. WLE seeks to change this by analyzing business models and returns on investment.
Clear client focus: the private sector, public private partnerships, and business schools
The research portfolio is designed for the client: analyze successes and test promising business models for replication at scale
Multi-disciplinary research team includes economists, business developers, and environmental scientists

Example: the decision analysis process Northeast Kenya: Tap the Merti aquifer to pump water > 100 km to town of Waiir?
Identify risks and uncertainties in decision of interest
Engage decision makers
Make probabilistic cost/benefit impacts on
different stakeholder groups of likely outcomes of decision
Compute value of additional information (uncertain variables
with high information value = priorities for measurement) Probabilistic outcomes
(benefits/negative impacts) for different stakeholder groups
