The role of weights in multi-criteria decision aid, and the ranking of water projects in Jordan

Abstract A case study to build the water sector objectives hierarchy and their weights utilising a structured group brainstorming workshop is described. This became an input to rank the major water projects in Jordan utilising a multi-criteria decision aid method. Finally, weights sensitivity analysis was conducted to judge the stability of the results.
