Raising
awareness,
building
capacity
and
exchanging
information
People
do
not
always
adhere
to
the
law,
rules
and
regulations,
especially
those
being
introduced
from
outside
their
community.
Rules
require
enforcement
and
legitimacy.
Legitimacy
depends
on
trust
and
trust
is
built
by
accountability,
transparency
and
fairness
of
rules
and
procedures
(i.e.,
predictability).
As
traditional
rules
continue
to
play
an
important
role,
it
is
recommended
to
support
the
debate
about
how
to
accommodate
the
traditional
values
in
the
challenging
requirements
of
the
near
future.
This
includes
a
better
understanding
of
the
state
of
affairs
with
regard
to
the
current
water
needs
and
future
requirements.
On
the
water
system:
1.
Support
local
knowledge
exchange
within
the
water
system
(basin).
For
example,
support
the
farmer-‐
to-‐farmer
exchange
of
good
practices
over
the
regulation
of
groundwater.
2.
Strengthen
initiatives
that
make
data
(on
for
example
agro-‐climate
data
and
retail
prices
of
agricultural
produce)
publicly
available
(through
for
example
mobile
phones).
3.
“We
cannot
expect
the
government
or
military
to
solve
our
problems
but
we
need
to
take
the
problem-‐solving
into
our
own
hands.
Conflict
resolution
needs
to
be
organized
so
that
tribal
leaders
who
are
known
for
their
integrity
are
involved.
International
donors
can
supervise
the
resolution
process,
e.g.,
Dutch
embassy.”

Qat
production
is
a
very
important
source
of
income.
A
strategy
aiming
to
diminish
the
amount
of
qat
should
focus
on
the
demand
and
production
sides.
Raising
awareness
on
the
health
and
environmental
impacts
can
help
reduce
the
demand.
Whereas
on
the
production
side,
farmers
should
be
assisted
with
growing
alternative
sustainable
cash
crops,
such
as
almond
trees.
This
requires
market
chain
development
and
commitment
from
donor
countries,
e.g.,
to
address
escalating
tariffs
and
other
restricting
rules.

the
current
water
rules
and
responsible
authorities:
