Five Complexity Factors
The report has indicated that the GERD dam is a
complex project with relevant justifications
These report five
factors of the GERD
dam project. These
factors were clearly
mapped with the
GERD dam project. In
factor named
“Unhelpful
behaviour”, authors
nicely describe that
it leads to the
unhelpful behaviour.
In second factor,
authors describe that
different procedures
are performed of the
GERD dam
separately. In third
factor, authors
clearly describe the
economic
development of
Ethiopia for GERD
dam project. In the
fourth factor,
authors nicely
explain how too
much experience
hampers the
simplicity of the
project. In fifth
factor, authors
mention the
procedure of making
the strategy of the
project ambiguous.

Has the report identified the FIVE complexity factors
as detailed in Ch.1
Were these factors mapped with the GERD case?
Are there enough details about these factors?

ICCPM Outcomes
Has the report provided FIVE of the ICCPM
outcomes? If not, how many outcomes are
there?
In this report,
authors do not
provide five ICCPM
outcomes for GERD
dam project. They
provide only four
outcomes for GERD
dam project. Authors
nicely describe the
first outcomes. They
elaborate regarding
the creation of the
Egypt’s barrier
during the GERD dam
construction which
raises human and
water security
threats. In the
second outcome,
authors nicely
explain regarding the
damage of
biodiversity and
large proportion of
displacement of
people caused by
this project. But they
do not go in detailed
discussion. In third
outcome, authors
describe regarding
the river diversion
challenge and in the
fourth portion
authors describe
technical
complications.

Has the report provided detailed discussion to
the provided outcomes?
Are they relevant and well mapped?
SHBY LAW
Has the report indicated the external varieties as per
Ashby Law?
This report does not
discuss regarding the
external varieties as
per the Ashby Law.
In this project, one of
the major varieties is
the finance. Authors
describe that Ethiopia
takes loan from the
World Bank for
running this project
and a company based
of China invests to
this project. This may
solve the financial
issues related to the
project. Another
