La gouvernance de l'eau en Afrique de l'Ouest : aspects juridiques et institutionnels. Compte rendu de l'atelier de l'UICN "Gouvernance de l'eau : aspects juridiques et institutionnels de la gestion des ressources naturelles en Afrique de l'Ouest"

The workshop was organised to improve the understanding of the dialectic between water-related infrastructures and institutional frameworks in West Africa. Papers address a multiplicity of issues on water governance: water, wetlands and international environmental agreements; legal aspects of transboundary water resources; water resources management at the local level: customary and modern institutions; Integrated Water Resources Management, environment, economy, and equity in national water policies; and river basin organisations in West Africa.
