Pathways to sustainable water resources management…
have to balance landscape modifications linked to socio-economic development, e.g. food production, against the potential impacts on other water users, including ecosystems

Pathways to sustainable water resources management…

must encompass not only the liquid water in rivers lakes and aquifers (blue water), but also soil moisture (green water) and how the complex of green and blue water sources and flows is influenced through changes in land and vegetation cover

Pathways to sustainable water resources management…
have to go through a range of stakeholders related to each other through complex governance arrangements

Systems devised for governing natural resources display a large diversity
but the tools to understand them are strikingly blunt

A social network approach
Has recently been used to analyze problems in natural resources management and governance
Focuses on relationships between social entities and the implications of these relationships
Can be used for analyzing across different sectors and scales

The empirically measured social network influencing land, water and ecosystems

‘Bottom up’ analysis to understand existing social structures

Klique finder analysis to identify cohesive subgroups

Centrality measurements to identify potentially influential actors
![Page 14: Christian Stein - A network approach to analyzing governance of land, water and ecosystems](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110308/55745258d8b42a0c468b4b40/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Emergent results
Formal actors are not be the only or even the most important actors
Local (informal) actors perform important functions with regards to governing green and blue water at the catchment scale, but they are not adequately linked to the (formal) water governance system
No organization coordinates the various land and water related activities across the catchment, i.e. limited horizontal interaction and local actors have limited linkages to ‘official’ actors at higher-levels of governance, i.e. limited vertical interaction
Current attempts to address identified gaps could benefit from building upon already existing social network structures, some of which have been identified through this network approach

Conceptual framework
Analyse the social network structurei.e. the pattern of interactions
Identify opportunities and constrains of the existing governance systeme.g. existing structures that can be build on

Stylized Networks illustrating the network perspective
Based on a better understanding of the existing social network structures (A), potential interventions can be identified (A>B) to adapt the governance network (B)
