Capacity building for the application of digital transformation technologies in irrigation and drainage planning and management in the Province of Los Rios in Ecuador.

Start Date: 07/02/2022
End Date: 06/05/2022

Description

Short-term technical cooperation that strengthens the institutional capacities of a subnational authority in Ecuador to apply digital transformation technologies to irrigation and drainage planning and management. It includes a diagnostic of the current situation and the design of digital tools for the timely collection and management of information, together with training for the responsible technical staff. Its objective is to improve data-driven decision-making for the execution of the programs and projects under the provincial irrigation and drainage plan.

Observations

Sources: project record in the IICA Projects Dashboard (https://apps.iica.int/DashboardProyectos/programas/Detalle?CRON=5189&SCRON=00, accessed 09/30/2026; code 5189-00) and existing OPSAa record (initiative-330). [REVIEW] The Decentralized Autonomous Government of the Province of Los Ríos was added as an institution, as the counterpart of the specific technical cooperation agreement per the IICA record itself, missing from the prior record (proposed role: Interinstitutional cooperation). [REVIEW] The tag AgTech was added given the explicit application of digital technologies to irrigation and drainage management. Initiative type, scope, stage, temporality, dates (02/07/2022 to 05/06/2022), budget (USD 12,772, no counterpart), sectors, thematic areas, country, beneficiaries, instruments, results, policy framework (National Irrigation and Drainage Plan) and the IICA institution are kept unchanged: they match the prior OPSAa record and the IICA record. Status: Completed.
