As a contribution to the Sector Vision on Water for Food and Rural Development for the Second World Water Forum at The Hague in March 2000, ICID presented a draft Strategy for Implementing the Sector Vision. This Strategy document was further improved, updated and finalised through eight regional visions, 43 country reports and several deliberations within ICID. The Document was approved by the International Executive Council (IEC). Based on the recommendation emanating from the Strategy Theme 'Policy' presented at the 50th IEC meeting in Cape Town, South Africa in 2000 and the decision of IEC to provide ICID inputs to the Third World Water Forum to be held in Kyoto, Japan in 2003, the following special Task Forces were set up: TF1?: To Guide ICID Preparation of ICID Inputs for the Third World Water Forum TF2?: To Develop Position Paper on Global Issues related to Food Production, Security and Food Trade TF3?: To Prepare ICID Position Paper on Socio-Economic Sustainability of Services provided by Irrigation, Drainage and Flood Schemes in Water Resources Sector. At the 51st IEC held in Seoul, Korea in 2001, the following two more Task Forces were set up: TF4?: Benchmarking of Irrigation and Drainage Projects TF5?: Promoting Appropriate Decision-Making Procedures for New Dams, particularly for Irrigation, Drainage and Flood Management. All the above TFs completed their assigned tasks by 2004. This CD-ROM presents the findings of the Task Forces in the form of reports produced by them.
