4. Coordination <br />o Conflicts, perceived divisions, mixed and nonproductive messages and attitudes <br />hamper educational efforts. (e.g., Rural/urban, east/west slope, ground/surface <br />water.} <br />o Lack coordination between water quality and water quantity efforts. <br />o Not enough vertical and horizontal integration or coordination among diverse <br />programs and providers. <br />o Complexity of water systems, providers and users make coordination extremely <br />difficult. <br />The opportunities and threats were then used to develop the common framework and <br />recommendations. <br />Common Framework for wafer Education <br />A common framework was created from the focus groups' work to develop a common objective. <br />This framework is intended to set the foundation for water education efforts in Colorado. The <br />task force and focus groups developed these common themes for their work in water education <br />in Colorado: <br />• water in Colorado is a shared, limited, and vulnerable resource; and <br />• water is a precious resource that must be properly valued by Colorado citizens and <br />its many visitors forthe benefit of our economy, quality of life and environment. <br />Furthermore, these common goals were identified for water education efforts throughout the <br />state: <br />• achieve higher levels of water stewardship of Colorado's water resources through <br />education; and <br />• increase the awareness and understanding about the importance of water in <br />Colorado. <br />These efforts support State efforts in water resource planning such as the Colorado Waterfor <br />the 21st Century Act, the Statewide Water Supply Initiative and studies of developable water <br />under the Colorado River Compact. <br />The survey results, opportunities and threats, and common framework were used by the Task <br />Force to create recommendations for improving water education in Colorado as reported in the <br />next section. <br />Task Force Outcomes <br />2008 Scope and Initial Planning Committee Outcomes <br />The planning committee met on October 29t", 2007 to develop the scope of work and initiate the <br />first components of the project. This committee was comprised of a small group of water <br />education professionals which grew into the larger Task Force. <br />WETF 2008 Final Report pg. 11 <br />
