ANNEX 68 (SC): Establishing common water sector priorities in Africa / Human Capacity Development and Water sector in the context of Agri-Energy sectors by Mbaziira, R.

The report addresses a twofold objective, in order to provide an overview of:

- the Human Capacity Development (HCD) priorities in the water sector in Africa;
- the Development Priorities of the Water Sector placed in the context of Agri-Energy sectors

ANNEX63-65 (SC): Status of Geothermal Industry in East African Countries by Dr. A. Battistelli

The general objective of the present report is to frame the state-of-the-art on the geothermal resource development in East African Countries (Eritrea, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania and Comoros) and two Southern African countries (Malawi and Zambia). For the sake of simplicity, all the above countries will be collectively referred to as “East African countries”.

ANNEX 61-62 (SC) : Hydrology and water balance for Lake Victoria sub basin report by Dr. Mohammed Abdullahi Hassan (ICPAC)

In the framework of the project scientific component, the CEANWATCE, this project addressed the WEFE nexus interdependences and evaluated sustainable bridging-gap solutions. The specific objectives was to perform hydrological and water balance assessments, including water uses within a scenario based analysis under different climate pressures and management practices focusing on the Lake Victoria basin (LVB).

ANNEX58-60 (SC) : CLIMATE VARIABILITY and EXTREME EVENTS REPORT by Mr. Zachary K.K Atheru (ICPAC)

Extreme climate events such as drought and floods with severe impacts over the Greater Horn of Africa (GHA) have been on the rise over the past decades. These events negatively impact the regional ecosystem, livelihood, and economy which heavily depends on rain-fed agriculture, while in the energy sector largely depends on hydropower, thus shifts and variability in rainfall and temperature could hinder the development and economic growth of the region.

ANNEX 55-57 (SC) : Water and livelihood resilience under changing climate(s) and extremes: Groundwater water and agriculture issues in the Lake Victoria Basin by Dr. Yazidhi Bamutaze, PhD (Makerere University)

Hydrological fluxes, land use and climate change are significant processes in the biogeochemical processes and agricultural productivity in the Lake Victoria Basin. The objective was to elicit hydrological trends with attendant quality and quantity components, assess land use change patterns as well as implications of climate change on maize yields in the LVB.

 

 

ANNEX42-45 (SC): WEFE ASSESSMENT IN THE NIGER-DELTA BASIN, SOUTHERN NIGERIA PREPARED BY PROF J. O. EHIOROBO AND PROF O. C. IZINYON (UNIVERSITY OF BENIN)

This study Examines the Water, Energy, Food and Ecosystem (WEFE) nexus assessment in the Niger Delta basin of Nigeria. One major component of the Niger Delta basin is that it has been a constant receptor of the unrelenting pressure and assault in the ecosystem and this has adversely affected the living condition of the people.

Annex 37 - 38 (SC) : Rapport d'activités sur la calibration du modèle SWAT à l'ensemble du bassin du Niger

Dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre du projet E-Nexus, il est prévu le développement et l’implémentation d’un modèle hydrologique pour l’estimation du bilan hydrologique et la gestion de l’eau, la production agricole, le maintien des écosystèmes. A cet effet, SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) a été identifié comme le modèle hydrologique à développer sur le bassin du Niger.
