Cooperation in International Waters in Africa (CIWA)

Aligning stakeholders for cooperative water management  

Scriptoria has been a trusted communications partner for the US$130 million World Bank-managed CIWA programme for the past decade. CIWA assists riparian governments in sub-Saharan Africa in unlocking the potential for sustainable, climate-resilient growth by addressing constraints to cooperative water resources management and development.

Timeframe: 2015–Present  

Our approach 

Scriptoria designed, built and maintains CIWA’s bilingual website, including a resource library with numerous publications and advanced filtering. We support the CIWA team with branding, SEO and analytics services, and content management system training. In addition, we have created digital annual reports, a 10-year anniversary microsite and a hub for male champions for women’s empowerment in the transboundary water sector.

Impact 

Our work has strengthened CIWA’s digital presence and accessibility, ensured consistent, high-quality communications across platforms and helped engage stakeholders while highlighting the programme’s long-term impact.

CGIAR Initiative on NEXUS Gains

Influencing policy in global resource management 

Scriptoria led external communications for NEXUS Gains to drive engagement, amplify research and enhance policy influence. Operating across 14 countries and valued at US$20 million, NEXUS Gains aimed to improve the integrated management of resources across the water–energy–food–environment (WEFE) nexus to achieve inclusive, sustainable development. 

Timeframe: 2022–2024  

Our approach 

Scriptoria developed and implemented a communications strategy for the initiative, which included promoting solutions through digital and social media content, and producing a successful webinar series. We also helped researchers to translate their work into accessible materials including learning modules, blogs and impact stories. 

Impact 

Our work raised awareness of decision-support tools to help governments and investors address trade-offs and synergies across interlocking sectors. It also helped to promote nexus solutions at key global events such as the United Nations climate change conferences (COPs).

Climate Resilient Infrastructure Development Facility (CRIDF)

Building a knowledge legacy in Southern Africa 

Scriptoria was the lead communications partner for CRIDF from its second phase onwards – developing, implementing and monitoring the programme’s communications strategy. Originally funded by UK International Development, CRIDF was a £31 million programme that worked to provide long-term solutions to water issues affecting communities in Southern Africa.

Timeframe: 2017–2023  

Our approach 

Scriptoria developed and managed a new website and resource centre, and produced a wide range of knowledge products, working closely with the CRIDF team to generate ideas for content. We also managed CRIDF’s social media accounts; supported campaigns and events; and created digital content, infographics, videos and animations. 

Impact 

In CRIDF’s final year, we helped to build a legacy for the programme, including developing a thought piece demonstrating lessons learned.
