Funded Activity Summary

Negotiation Support Systems for Groundwater Managment in Small Islands. Expanding populations and limited land area in small islands are increasing the pressures on fresh groundwater resources. The dilemma is how to protect shallow groundwater reserves without alienating traditional landowners and without generating costly conflicts. The problem is complex and involves the interaction of hydrologic and technical factors with socio-cultural, economic, policy and institutional factors. Multi Agent Systems (MAS) have been developed to study the interaction between societies and the environment. Here we will use MAS to develop Negotiation Support Systems for groundwater management in small islands.
