| Summary, etc. |
The Niger River Basin, home to 100 million people, is a vital yet complex asset for West and Central Africa. It is the continents third largest river basin, traversing nine countries -Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, C?te dIvoire, Guinea, Mali, Niger, and Nigeria. The River embodies both these nations livelihoods and their geopolitics. It is not simply water but rather an origin of identity, a route for migration and commerce, a source of conflict, and a catalyst for cooperation. Cooperation among decision-makers and users is crucial to address the threats to water resources. The Niger Basin Authority is mandated to foster this cooperation and sharing of resources. The Basin riparians have renewed their commitment to address sustainable management and development of the Basins resources through an improved framework and a Shared Vision process. |
