Lessons Learnt, Open Research Questions and Recommendations

Abstract

This chapter represents the summary of the common analysis within the Interdisciplinary Research Group Society – Water – Technology. Lessons learnt, research gaps and recommendations are presented as the outcome of the analysis of the two case studies Fergana Valley and Lower Jordan Basin and as a conclusion from the cross-analysis based on the evaluation framework and the considerations outlined in Chap. 3 (Bismuth et al., Research in two cases studies: (1) Irrigation and land use in the Fergana Valley and (2) Water management in the Lower Jordan Valley.
