Training Manual: Integration of groundwater management into transboundary basin organizations in Africa
This training manual, available in English and French, is the product of two specific policy visions.
The first is derived from one of the pillars of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM): that all water should be managed as a unitary resource within hydrological basin boundaries. The second relates to the obvious transboundary nature of water as rivers flow from one country to the next. International development cooperation in the water sector is therefore increasingly supporting transboundary cooperation mechanisms.
Many international organizations such as AGW-Net, BGR, IGRAC, UNDP-Cap-Net, IWMI, and the former GW-MATE team of the World Bank supported this process and have provided valuable inputs to this manual.
