Small-Scale farmer-managed aquaculture in engineered water systems: Critical design and management approaches. Project R7064: Working Paper SL1.1Abstract
The aims of this paper are twofold. Firstly to characterise rural poverty and to give a broad overview of the agro-ecological, climatic and socio-economic conditions in Sri Lanka which shape poverty. Secondly to present the methodology employed to screen suitable field research areas and the techniques subsequently used to carry out Rapid Rural Appraisal in two upper-watersheds villages. Also presented are details of a concurrent stakeholder analysis that aimed to investigate the capacity of secondary stakeholders to promote sustainable aquaticresource development and to invite their participation in the formulation of a participatory research agenda.[PDF contains 58 pages]Publisher or University
