Individual Work1. Vasco Diogo
Knowledge gap: integrity of the urban water system during extreme rainfall events
Recommendations: system analysis using GIS and assemble the results in a water-atlas

Assessing Watergraafsmeer’s water system
1. What is known about the urban water system and where are the knowledge gaps? 2. How can knowledge be improved in order to realize future water management options?
WATERgraafsmeer: Urban Transition29 oct 2010
Individual Work2. Iris Pit
Knowledge gap: The current management on water quality is incoherent and knowledge on future perspectives is lacking
Recommendations: Site-specific data collection to perform a data analysis.

Individual Work4. Daniel Wiegant
Balancing ‘top down’ and ‘bottom up’ in decision-making
1. How can community-based processes contribute to an increased communal adaptiveness? 2. How can institutions fulfill a facilitating role to foster bottom-up decision-making processes?
WATERgraafsmeer: Urban Transition29 oct 2010
Individual Work4. Daniel Wiegant
Knowledge gap: How to manage large scale problem by a bottom up structure
Recommendations: stakeholder involvement to improve the quality and legitimacy of decisions, needs to happen with a participation plan that clearly states the role and input of stakeholders.

Individual Work5. Marieke Kessels
Stakeholder analysis
1. What definitions of the “stakeholder” concept can be discerned?
2. What different approaches toward stakeholder analysis can be discerned?
3. What guidelines exist for selecting the appropriate stakeholder analysis method and how can these be applied to the case?
WATERgraafsmeer: Urban Transition29 oct 2010
Individual Work5. Marieke Kessels
Knowledge gap: Waternet has no clear goal in mind for conducting a stakeholder analysis
Recommendations: Decide on the goal and perform a stakeholder analysis that supports this goal
WATERgraafsmeer: Urban Transition29 oct 2010
Individual Work 6. Marjolein van Gelder
Raising awareness among Watergraafsmeer’s inhabitants
How can awareness of the ecological risks in Watergraafsmeer be raised at the inhabitants of the district?
WATERgraafsmeer: Urban Transition29 oct 2010
Individual Work 6. Marjolein van Gelder
Knowledge gap: Gaps in implementing and defining policy that reaches the inhabitants of Watergraafsmeer and makes them more aware
Recommendations: Raise awareness by urban planning place attachment & environmental education
