SUMMARY:Focused Conversation: “Knowledge Sharing around water manage
 ment innovations in the Andes and Himalayas”
DESCRIPTION:Dear KM4Dev Colleagues,\nI am glad to contact you regar
 ding the upcoming Focused Conversation, titled: “Knowledge Sharing a
 round water management innovations in the Andes and Himalayas”. This
  focused conversation is an KM4Dev project which opens a space to shar
 e lessons learnt by communities in both mountain regions around innova
 tive solutions on water management. These communities have found innov
 ative and creative ways to manage their water resources, adapting to h
 arsh environmental hazards and climate changes in mountain regions of 
 the Andes and the Himalayas. \nThe HimalAndes team is a small group o
 f experts who are finding ways to bridge distances between the Himalay
 as and the Andes, focusing on similarities among both ecosystems, and 
 extrapolating valuable lessons across both regions. This focused discu
 ssion will use the KM4Dev Platform to share lessons through selected c
 ases from both mountain regions around innovative solutions for water 
 management. These lessons will be shared and debated using a “virtua
 l bridge” during 3 weeks.   The KM4Dev Platform currently has arou
 nd 1800 members from 104 countries, including the Andean and Himalayan
  regions.  We expect your active comments and contributions to enrich
  this focused conversation.\n This focused conversation will be held 
 between Sep. 23 and Oct 10th 2013 on the KM4Dev Platform. It will be
  facilitated by a small committee of experts (Felipe Custer, Alejandro
  Camino and Ana Maria Ponce). Experts from both regions are being cont
 acted in advance to submit case studies.  Weekly summaries will be po
 sted on the KM4Dev Wiki, and the final report with a general overview 
 and future recommendations will be compiled by Dr. Alejandro Camino, f
 ounder of the HimalAndes Initiative.\nThe HimalAndes team will be happ
 y to receive short (max. 3 pages) case studies by September 7th for t
 heir pre-selection in this upcoming focused conversation. Kindly send 
 them to the e-mail: ponceanamaria80@gmail.com.\nSelected case studies 
 will be shared in the list, published in the KM4Dev Wiki (http://wiki.
 km4dev.org/Discussions) and will be submitted to the KM4Dev Journal Ed
 itorial team for future issues of the KM4Dev Journal.\nWe look forward
  to a rich debate and active participation of KM4Dev members in this f
 ocused discussion!\nSincerely yours,\nHimalAndes Coordination Team:\n-
