This deals with the proceedings of the first stakeholder meeting held under the STRIVER project for the Tungabhadra River Basin. The meeting involved representatives from different stakeholder groups like the Irrigation Departments and Command Area Development Agencies (CADAs), Forest Department, Pollution Control Board, Fisheries Department, NGOs and civil society groups from the Tungabhadra basin, representatives of Water User Associations and farmers.

  • To solicit the views and opinions of local experts and representatives of different stakeholders from the basin as to the current issues and challenges within the basin which can further shape the research agenda of the STRIVER project;
  • To set up a mechanism for uptake and dissemination of the research results;
  • To form a network to work towards the formation of a Multi Stakeholder Platform in the Tungabhadra basin; and
  • To work towards a long-term process for managing the river basin.
