Acknowledgments
We acknowledge the CPWF basins leaders Miguel Saravia, Pamela George,
Kim Geheb, Amy Sullivan, Allen Duncan, Tilahun Amede, Simon Langan,
and Olufunke Cofie. Their insights and experience are the basis for this
chapter. In addition, we would like to thank CPWF Project Leaders who also
contributed insights through their project reports. We would like to thank Ilse

Notes
1

From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergence (accessed 1 December 2013).

2 Defined as “construction (as of a sculpture or a structure of ideas) achieved by using

whatever comes to hand” (Merriam-Webster, 1989).

3 BDC can either refer to the problem set that the challenge represents or to the basin

R4D program aimed to address the challenge.

4 Phase 2 projects finish from late 2013 to mid-2014, many in December 2013.

Because Phase 2 has been brief, there are as yet few publications that document its
progress. We therefore had to rely on unpublished project-progress reports.
