PURPOSE OF THIS CONSULTANCY

The purpose of this assignment is to develop a website to:

1. Serve as a repository for one of Oxfam’s Flagship Water Governance Programmes – TROSA’s learnings, impacts, knowledge products, and stories for long-term public access.
2. Promote awareness and education on inclusive water governance among youth, women, community leaders, policymakers, civil society organisations, businesses, researchers, and academics.   
3. Promote regional cooperation and cross-border dialogue for inclusive and just water governance.
4. Showcase community voices, local innovations, and youth and women’s leadership in water governance.
5. Encourage and nurture partnerships for inclusive water governance.

BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT

Transboundary Rivers of South Asia (TROSA), implemented since 2017, has catalysed important progress in inclusive water governance, climate resilience, and regional cooperation across the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM) basins. A key strength of TROSA lies in its extensive network of 18 regional and national partners, enabling deep engagement across diverse geographies and communities in South Asia. This wide geographic coverage, combined with strong partnerships and community-driven knowledge, has generated valuable insights, stories, and evidence for civil society, practitioners, researchers, policy actors, and future regional initiatives.

As the programme approaches the end of its second, and possibly final, phase, a dedicated website is being envisioned as a digital space to:

• Preserve TROSA’s learning and impact and leave a legacy for future use and reference
• Celebrate its multi-country, partnership-focused model and demonstrate TROSA’s regional programme
• Inspire continued collaboration and serve as a knowledge hub on water governance across South Asia.
