Presentation
The study is funded by The Challenge Program and is being conducted by IFPRI, GRADE and the University of Wageningen. GRADE will perform the institutional analysis of water and soil management interventions in the basin, using a conceptual framework from the institutional economy. Enquiries will be made about the forms in which the local rules and institutions influence the decisions to adopt soil and water management practices in the areas under evaluation in the basin. The study also has the collaboration of CEDEPAS Norte and CARE-WWF.
