ADR y planificación de cuencas hidrográficas en Bolivia

The document introduces a new integrated approach for water resource planning in Bolivia that merges the national Plan Nacional de Cuenca (PNC) with Robust Decision Support (ADR). This methodology was applied to the Río Rocha basin to incorporate long-term uncertainties, such as climate change and demographic shifts, into the planning process. A key innovation is the use of the Water Evaluation and Planning (WEAP) system within a Participatory Decision-Making Model (MTDP), allowing stakeholders to interactively evaluate the impacts of different management interventions through quantitative indicators. The authors argue that this integrated approach legitimizes planning instruments through effective participation and provides a replicable model for other strategic basins in Bolivia.

• The integration of Robust Decision Support (ADR) into the formulation of the Río Rocha Basin Master Plan (PDC) emphasizes that participatory processes are essential to legitimize basin planning instruments.
• A primary innovation of this integrated approach is the formalization of modeling tools within the PDC formulation process, which creates opportunities for replication in other strategic basins prioritized under the National Basin Plan (PNC).
• The use of modeling tools allows various organizations and stakeholders to interactively and iteratively identify both positive and negative interactions between potential basin management interventions.
• Quantitative indicators derived from modeling tools enable the assessment of intervention performance across different scales and help forecast progress toward medium- and long-term goals within the PDC.
• The ADR framework improves basin plan design by incorporating medium- and long-term uncertainties caused by external factors such as climate change, demographic shifts, and land-use changes.
• The Participatory Decision-Making Model (MTDP) utilizes the WEAP (Water Evaluation and Planning System) model and an interactive dashboard to allow stakeholders to explore the implications of water management options and recognize differing frames of reference.
