This CD-ROM contains a collection of primary sources of information, produced by FAO, on the role of water in agricultural development. It has been prepared by the Land and Water Development Division of FAO for the third World Water Forum (WWF-3). The documents and data collections on the CD-ROM contain background information on the questions and issues debated at the WWF-3. They enable a wider public to gain ready access to a more comprehensive range of FAO forecasts, assessments, technical studies and guidelines in the field of agricultural water development. They are complementary to the background document and issue papers presented and distributed widely by FAO at the WWF-3.
As one of its objectives for intervention in the development of Puntland, 0GB wants to enhance peace and stability through increasing self-reliance in water supply among the various communities.

This document describes the Research Data Management training course organized by the World Agroforestry Centre. Data management is a key area in any research and if not done well can limit the usefulness of the data. The main aim of this training is to encourage research scientists to allocate necessary resources to data management. These resources include both time and skilled personnel. The course also aims to give participants the necessary skills to handle their data in a systematic and organized way and to preserve their data for future use. brImplementing the ideas introduced in the course should lead to: br 1. Improved processing efficiency.br 2. Improved data quality.br 3. Improved meaningfulness of the data.br
