In addition, a partnership has been established that can jointly drive the work forward.<\/p>\n<h2>Expected long-term effects<\/h2>\n<p>Implementing the roadmap for system transformation that we have outlined in the project creates the conditions for better decision-making for a fair distribution of withdrawals from water resources and sustainable water management.<\/p>\n<h2>Approach and implementation<\/h2>\n<p>Gap analysis in a series of digital workshops identified knowledge and development needs. Foresight with concretization of future activities through a back-casting method was applied. In a physical full-day workshop, dependencies between knowledge areas were analyzed on a timeline; clustering in four continuation areas with suggestions for activities; norm-creative exercise around needs and perspectives. Results, conclusions and recommendations were concretized in group work, and agreed upon.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Access project results<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Download the final report (PDF)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Related project<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/waterwisesocieties.se\/en\/projekt_\/balanced-water-challenges-for-strategic-water-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Balanced water?
