“…The literature on stakeholder engagement reflects stakeholders as having power to object development programmes and policies, and also having interest in development programmes and policies to get the desired objectives. In the same vein, stakeholders are "those people who are affected by or can affect a decision" (Talley et al, 2016).…”

This article examines stakeholders' engagement in attaining food security and reducing poverty in the rural areas endowed with water natural resource. The main purpose of the article is to find evidence of appropriate approaches to overcome food insecurity and poverty in areas having abundant natural resources but engulfed with food and income poverty. It reviews the principles of stakeholders' engagement to examine the extent to which Magozi village leadership applies in agricultural transformations. Data were collected using ethnographic techniques of key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and documentary review. Findings from the study show that Magozi village has moved from food-aid dependency to food self-sufficiency by engaging stakeholders in the entire process of problem definition (recurring hunger and poverty), planning, resource mobilization to implementation. The main finding is the success stories of moving from food-aid to food selfsufficiency attributed to the irrigation scheme that came as a result of engaging various stakeholders including the Anglican Church, Tanzania Social Action Fund, Local Government Authority, and the community. The article recommends the adoption and implementation of many irrigation schemes for transforming rural agriculture in Tanzania

“…This, in turn, will ultimately aid in the identification of the most robust strategy. Stakeholder involvement is crucial in the development of management strategies to ensure realism and acceptance for further implementation (Talley, Schneider, & Lindquist, ) ( step 8 ).…”

Freshwater ecosystems are under a constant risk of being irreversibly damaged by human pressures that threaten their biodiversity, the sustainability of ecosystem services (ESs), and human well‐being. Despite the implementation of various environmental regulations, the challenges of safeguarding freshwater assets have so far not been tackled successfully. A promising way forward to stop the loss of freshwater biodiversity and to sustain freshwater‐based ESs is by implementing ecosystem‐based management (EBM), an environmental planning and adaptive management approach that jointly considers social and ecological needs. Responsible for considerable recent success in sustainably managing and conserving marine ecosystems, EBM has not yet been championed for fresh waters. A major reason for the delayed uptake of EBM in fresh waters is likely to be its complexity, requiring planners to be familiar with the latest developments in a range of different research areas. EBM would therefore benefit from becoming more tangible to receive attention on the ground. To facilitate uptake, eight core research areas for EBM and their innovations are introduced, and the way in which they feed into the workflow that guides the EBM planning stage is explained. The workflow links biodiversity distributions with ES supply‐and‐demand modelling and SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and timely) target planning, including scenario‐ and cross‐realm perspectives, the prioritization of management alternatives, spatial prioritization of biodiversity conservation and ES areas, and the quantification of uncertainties. Given the extensive resources, time, and technical capacity required to implement the full workflow, a light and an ultralight version of the workflow are also provided. Applied in concert, the eight well‐known research areas allow for better planning and operationalizing, and eventually for implementing EBM in freshwater ecosystems. EBM has great potential to increase public acceptance by introducing the consideration of human needs and aspirations into typically biodiversity‐driven conservation and management approaches. This will ultimately improve the integrity of freshwater ecosystems.

“…In a natural resource context, stakeholder engagement is defined by stakeholder participation in one or more steps of the research process, aiming to integrate their knowledge and values to answer more specific research questions (Talley et al, 2016).…”

“…Successful stakeholder engagement requires a precise methodology, such as that proposed by Talley et al (2016). In their study, they defined "stakeholders" as people who are affected by or can affect a decision (following Freeman 1983), and can vary from an "average" citizen to highly invested groups and decision-makers.…”

I would like to thank everyone who contributed their time, knowledge, training, and funding that made this research possible. I would like to first thank my advisor, Lejo Flores, for providing me with the opportunity to come to Boise State University and for keeping an authentic, diligent, and humorous approach to guiding and advising my research. I would also like to thank my committee members, Dr. Bangshuai Han and Dr. Rebecca Som Castellano; your knowledge of biophysical modeling and the sociology of food and agriculture, respectively, both provided an integral component to this project and was greatly appreciated. Although interdisciplinary research has its challenges, the social relevancy of research that "tears down disciplinary silos" has given me great pride in my degree. Thank you to the Lab for Ecohydrology and Alternative Futuring (LEAF) members for modeling support and data needs, especially Amy Steimke, who served as my "mom" both in and out of the lab. Thank you to Jared Talley for your network of local farmers who contributed to these results, and thank you to the farmers who participated in this study either formally or informally. I also want to thank the EPSCoR MILES team for critical feedback and opportunities to share my project with a wide array of individuals. This project was funded by NSF-EPSCoR Award #IIA-1301792. Lastly, I would like to thank the Boise State University Geosciences Department for giving me the opportunity to work and live in such a welcoming, friendly, and prestigious community of scientists.
