long-term thinking – Quality of science should be managed by partners
• Flagship products– Flagship “state of” reports & books– Working papers – Briefing notes– Outcomes stories
• Templates and publication pipelines to ensure consistency and quality when partners publish

Organizing WLE Comms: Principles
• Build upon the potential of 11 partners: their capacities knowledge and experience
• Collaboration with IWMI– Using what is there/helping to fill gaps and build
capacity – Use WLE comms as a testing ground for IWMI -
institutionalize what works • Use distributed/decentralized system with small, focused
team at central level (requires full-time attention)
