The document describes 'The Adaptive Watershed' (TAW), a training program structured into three themes: understanding the watershed and its people, making informed decisions for an adaptive plan, and committing to inclusive management. The program emphasizes a "plan–do–check–correct" approach to manage interlinked land, water, and human systems, specifically integrating climate change adaptation and gender equity. It aligns its objectives with four Sustainable Development Goals: SDG 6 (clean water and sanitation), SDG 13 (climate action), SDG 5 (gender equality), and SDG 15 (life on land). The curriculum guides participants through mapping watershed resources, analyzing stakeholder power dynamics, identifying climate and non-climatic stressors, and developing SMART key performance indicators for monitoring and evaluation.
