Abstract

The Sustaining inclusive Collective Action that Links across Economic and Ecological Scales in upper watersheds (Scales) project fits mainly in People and Water in Catchments Theme (Theme
2) of the CPWF. Its goal is to contribute to poverty alleviation in the upper watersheds of the
tropics through improved collective action for watershed resource management within and across
social-spatial scales. Scales worked though an integrated program of collaborative action
research, development, and capacity building in key catchments of the Nile and Andes basins, as
well as through synthesis and dissemination of lessons and approaches across basins, and
conceptual modeling and analysis. The project was led by the International Center for Tropical
Agriculture (CIAT), and involved 9 partner organizations
