Interventions include the removal of invasive tree species which use up to 40% more water than local species, monitoring groundwater levels, improving water efficiency on hops farms and creating a multi-stakeholder platform that could take ownership of addressing shared water challenges in the future. This last action is an essential step to take the partners into the Scale-up\/Exit phase of the partnership. This case study has proved the importance of creating a detailed implementation and communication plan, agreed upon by all parties during the Commit phase, as this will impact on the success of the Act phase.<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1522439235404{background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_separator]<div class=\"thim-widget-heading\"><div class=\"sc_heading   \"><h3 class=\"title\">Complementing the WRAF with the Collective Leadership Compass<\/h3><span style=\"background-color:#d1d1d1\" class=\"line\"><\/span><\/div><\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;4\/12&#8243;][vc_column_text]The Compass Dimensions and Aspects that are most commonly associated with N<strong>RAF<\/strong> <strong><u>Phase 4: Act<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Future Possibilities:<\/span> empowerment \u2013 inspire, enable, and awaken passion and options for change<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Wholeness:<\/span> mutual support \u2013 enhance one another\u2019s strengths<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Engagement:<\/span> collective action \u2013 drive joint implementation and delivery of results<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Innovation:<\/span> excellence \u2013 pursue mastery and grow knowledge<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Learn more <a href=\"http:\/\/www.collectiveleadership.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/collectiveleadership.com\/article\/the-collective-leadership-compass\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">.<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;8\/12&#8243;]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"thim-widget-heading\"><div class=\"sc_heading   \"><h3 class=\"title\">Tools &#38; Case Studies<\/h3><span style=\"background-color:#d1d1d1\" class=\"line\"><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"woocommerce columns-3 \"><ul class=\"product-grid row\">\n<li class=\"col-md-4 col-sm-6 col-xs-6 post-4322 product type-product status-publish has-post-thumbnail product_cat-phase-4-act product_tag-assisting-community-in-need product_tag-case-studies product_tag-collective-action product_tag-engagement product_tag-facility product_tag-restore-basin-ecosystem-services product_tag-river-basin product_tag-strengthen-informal-basin-water-governance product_tag-water-awareness-and-internal-capacity product_tag-wraf pa_developer-giz pa_developer-international-water-stewardship-programme-iwasp pa_portal-water-risk-action-framework pa_resource-type-case-studies pa_scope-corporate pa_types-projects-case-studies pa_wwf-mitigation-assisting-community-in-need pa_wwf-mitigation-collective-action pa_wwf-mitigation-restore-basin-ecosystem-services pa_wwf-mitigation-strengthen-informal-basin-water-governance pa_wwf-mitigation-water-awareness-and-internal-capacity  instock shipping-taxable product-type-simple\">\n    <div class=\"content__product\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/ceowatermandate.org\/natural-resources-risk-action-framework\/resource\/improved-community-livelihoods-and-sustainable-water-management-in-the-river-rwizi-catchment\/\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\">        <div class=\"product_thumb\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/ceowatermandate.org\/natural-resources-risk-action-framework\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2018\/03\/IWaSP_ACT_Uganda-River-Rwizi_17.05.2017-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_thumbnail size-woocommerce_thumbnail\" alt=\"river rwizi catchment\" \/>\t\t\t            <a href=\"https:\/\/ceowatermandate.org\/natural-resources-risk-action-framework\/resource\/improved-community-livelihoods-and-sustainable-water-management-in-the-river-rwizi-catchment\/\" class=\"link-images-product\"><\/a>\n        <\/div>\n\n\n        <div class=\"product__title\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/ceowatermandate.org\/natural-resources-risk-action-framework\/resource\/improved-community-livelihoods-and-sustainable-water-management-in-the-river-rwizi-catchment\/\" class=\"title\">Improved Community Livelihoods and Sustainable Water Management in the River Rwizi Catchment<\/a>\n            <div class=\"description\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>This partnership has shown that stakeholder buy-in is a crucial element for the success of the Act Phase.
