5. Research Questions and Objectives
A. Research Questions for Groundwater Depletion, Pollution Over-extraction and Saltwater Intrusion
A th till ti l l ti th t d t t th d t i ti
B Obj ti f G d t C t l P bl
Are there still practical solutions that we can adapt to reverse the deteriorating environmental status in order to balance and sustain nature resources relative with man’s progress and survival?
B. Objective for Groundwater Coastal Problems
To be able to formulate and implement practical measures towards sustainable water security for economic progress, conservation and water resource management.
To acquire state-of-the-art, knowledge-based products and services that meet the practical needs on various water domain and improve the water sector’s performance by promoting effective solution under a given diverse situation.
To establish an effective knowledge partnership for information sharing utilizing available experiences and expertise that could readily be applied and customized considering various geographical condition.
To develop better stewardship and governance in managing coastal groundwater resources and resource sustainability that could be used as reference in prioritizing uses, minimizing risk associated with GW problems and identifies areas requiring immediate
i f fi i h l f d i d lsupport in terms of financing, technology transfer and capacity development.

8. Expectations from the Project
H h ld j t i d k h b i d?How should project seminars and workshops be organized?Workshops, training and seminar must be participated by all stakeholders consisting of consumers, scientists, medical practitioners, engineers, politician and educators. Presentation shall provide information on the current state and f t i d h t t t b t t t i / l b l idfuture scenario and what steps must be execute to prevent region/global wide calamity.
What assistances are required from the project?Fi i l i t d t h l i l d t t l iti tFinancial assistance and new technological advances to control or mitigate GW problems, assess GW availability through field studies, digital modeling, geophysical instrumentation and installation of monitoring network system.
Wh t lt t d f th j t?What results are expected from the project?At the end of the project, I expect to infuses or integrate in our system the lesson learn from this project through participating in local conferences, forum and intra-agency seminars or training.
What do you want to learn from other countries?Comparative similarities and differences in term of geographical condition, diverse geological affiliation and solutions adaptation to existing problems.
What experiences do you want to share with other countries?Our state or conditions of our country’s water resources what we have done so
far.
