CIWA

CIWA, a multi-donor partnership, continues to support riparian governments in Sub-Saharan Africa and their path toward more sustainable, data-driven, community-focused, and collaborative management of transboundary waters... West and Central Africa faces increasing climate change impacts, including prolonged drought and unpredictable rainy seasons. The Sahel also suffers from fragility, violence, weak institutions, and political instability. In a region with widespread gender inequality, CIWA is working to ensure the equitable participation of women in decision making about water resources. It also is improving water security by addressing knowledge and capacity gaps, identifying investments and policy actions, and emphasizing the sustainable management and development of groundwater.
