Facilitating negociations over land and water conflicts in Latin American periurban upstream catchments : combining agent-based modelling with role game playing

Objective

In a rapidly urbanising world, population densities no longer allow for unlimited access to safe water. Competition for water, often associated with a struggle for land, is exacerbated in per urban areas. The NEGOWAT project will elaborate, structure and test a methodology combining an agent-based modelling approach and role game playing as a mediating tool for facilitating negotiations over land and water management, in the context of metropolitan upstream catchments in Latin America. The research aims to provide (i) a conceptual tool that will allow to analyse land and water management in this context (ii) a methodology and computing tools (including guidelines for its implementation) to explore, test and discuss scenarios, reinforcing the participation of marginalized stakeholders of the city fringe in all stages of the negotiation process.
