|a The Mara River basin catchment is currently classified under an "ALARM" state. The catchment continues to progressively deteriorate despite the wide range of management initiatives employed by different organisations and communities living in the basin. With a multifaceted group of actors ranging from upstream and downstream communities on one hand and higher institutional level management on the other, it is useful to assess the existing formal and informal potentials and opportunities for improved catchment governance. Social network analysis (SNA) is a strategy that can be used to assess and explore these potentials. The novelty of this study is the focus on the exchange of goods and services to establish the existence of useful linkages and interdependencies through the main market located between the upstream anddownstream communities. The research concludes that social network analysis is a useful approach that provides opportunity to gain insight into complex governance systems in river basin management and could reveal alternative options with great advantagesfor catchment governance. |
