APPENDIX C
INTERVIEWS WITH KEY INFORMANTS OVERVIEW To shed light on some of the dynamics of water, migration, and conflict in the region, 18 key informants from different countries and backgrounds, including researchers, experts, professors, and technical engineers, were interviewed as part of this study. The interviews were administered by the West Asia-North Africa (WANA) Institute. WANA also transcribed recordings of each interview and prepared interview summaries. Semistructured interviews were conducted both in person and virtually. Each key informant was asked a set of qualitative questions on water, conflict, and migration in the Middle East and North Africa region that pertained to his or her knowledge area. In addition, key informants who expressed interest participated in an expert elicitation that focused on three themes, detailed in box C.1. All key informants agreed to WANA’s consent form for participation in research interviews. Anonymity and confidentiality in the aggregated findings were ensured through the use of randomized key informant codes (table C.1).
