About the Multiple Benefits Framework
The Pacific Institute, in partnership with Bob Wilkinson of the Bren School, has developed a framework to help water managers quantify and evaluate all of the potential benefits of water management projects, and to incorporate these benefits into their decision-making. Additionally, the framework seeks to bring diverse stakeholders together to invest in progressive water management projects that solve more than one problem. Our analysis of the benefits of City of Austin pilot program, similarly to the Santa Ana case, will help provide real world context for the multiple benefit framework, particularly for evaluating benefits for Urban Heat Island Effect and Equity.
