A draft science plan for HyVic, published April 2013, is available here. It outlines the five HyVic research themes (Translational Research to Interface with Applications, Severe Weather and Water Currents, Lake Victoria Basin Water and Energy Budgets, Modeling of the LVB Hydroclimatological System, and Monitoring of the LVB Hydroclimatological System) and three mechanisms to coordinate the research themes (HyVic Implementation Sites, HyVic International Panel, and HyVic International Project Office). The plan sets up a ten year project, but aims to ensure sustainability beyond the ten-year period.
