    Although gender issues are today a priority on the agendas of irrigation policy makers, interventionists, farm leaders and researchers, there is still a considerable gap between positive intentions and concrete action. An important but hitherto ignored reason for this is the lack of adequate generic concepts and tools that are policy-relevant and can accommodate the vast variation in irrigation contexts worldwide. The Gender Performance Indicator for Irrigation (GPII) aims to fill this gap.

    This paper first presents a clustering of women based on the characterization of their distinct access rights to néré. Secondly, the types of access rights are characterized also in spatial terms, based on the type of land use where the women harvesting is exercised.

    Parkia biglobosa, a NTFP tree species commonly known as "néré" is particularly important in the diet of rural and urban populations in the Sudano-Sahelian zone. The seeds are processed into a highly nutritious sauce, called "soumbala", combined with cereal dishes. While néré is very popular, its occurrence is declining because of various threats hindering its regeneration. In a condition of increasing scarcity of néré and increasing demand, changes in use and access rights, depending on the social status of harvesters, are taking place.

    The Niger River Basin covers 7.5% of the African continent, and is shared between nine riparian

    countries. The basin countries can be categorized into water resources producers, consumers, both

    producers and consumers, and minimum contributors and consumers. As in the case for most

    transboundary rivers, upstream and downstream conflicts emanating from the development and

    utilization of the Niger River are inevitable and are expected to be intense, particularly given the

    The Basin Focal Project Volta (BFP Volta) was developed along three main steps:

    Assessment of present conditions of the distribution of rural poverty, of farming

    systems with their productivity and water productivity;

    Analysis of opportunities and risks, especially under the double pressure of demography

    and possible climate change, and modeling of water resources to identify sensitivity of

    water allocation to development and climate scenarios; and

    Identification of research gaps and implementation plan.
