The analytical study systematically reviewed the evidence about the IWRM strategy model. The study analysed the IWRM strategy, policy advances and practical implications it had, since inception on effective water management in East, West and Southern Africa.
The study adopted the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) and the scoping literature review approach. The study searched selected databases for peer-reviewed articles, books, and grey literature. DistillerSR software was used for article screening. A constructionist thematic analysis was employed to extract recurring themes amongst the regions.
The systematic literature review detailed the adoption, policy revisions and emerging policy trends and issues (or considerations) on IWRM in East, West and Southern Africa. Thematic analysis derived four cross-cutting themes that contributed to IWRM strategy implementation and adoption. The identified four themes were donor effect, water scarcity, transboundary water resources, and policy approach. The output further posited questions on the prospects, including whether IWRM has been a success or failure within the African water resource management fraternity.
本分析研究系统地回顾了关于水资源综合管理战略模式的证据。该研究分析了自东非、西非和南非开始实施水资源综合管理以来，该战略、政策进展及其实际影响。
本研究采用了系统评价和荟萃分析方案的首选报告项目（PRISMA-P）和范围文献综述方法。研究在选定的数据库中搜索了同行评议的文章、书籍和灰色文献。使用 DistillerSR 软件进行文章筛选。采用建构主义主题分析法从各地区中提取反复出现的主题。
系统文献综述详细介绍了东非、西非和南非对水资源综合管理的采用、政策修订以及新兴政策趋势和问题（或考虑因素）。主题分析得出了有助于水资源综合管理战略实施和采用的四个交叉主题。确定的四个主题是捐助方效应、水资源短缺、跨界水资源和政策方法。研究结果进一步提出了关于水资源综合管理前景的问题，包括水资源综合管理在非洲水资源管理界是否取得了成功或失败。
