To showcase how increased returns on investment opportunities can be achieved by applying a nexus approach, best practices of the water-energy-food nexus were collected in the form of several case studies. The best practice cases focus on water, energy and food security dimensions that advance socio-economic development and propose the nexus as a promising approach to resolving competition over limited resources.

Ce rapport synthétise les résultats de ces quatre années de recherche et dresse, entre trois sites (barrages et périmètres rizicoles) -- Sélingué au Mali, Bagré au Burkina Faso et Anambé au Sénégal --  des parallèles porteurs d’enseignements pour la région ouest africaine.

In recent years, the governments of the Sahel have committed to combat poverty and food insecurity through a significant increase in the development of irrigable areas. From 2013 onwards, GWI has carried out retrospective studies on three existing dam and rice field sites: Sélingué in Mali, Bagré in Burkina Faso and Anambé in Senegal. This report summarises the results of four years of research and identifies parallels between the different sites that provide wider lessons for the W

Ce document présente les expériences de six barrages construits en Afrique de l'Ouest entre la fin des années 1970 et la fin des années 1990 : Sélingué au Mali, Niandouba et Confluent au Sénégal, Moussodougou, Bagré et Kompienga au Burkina Faso. Des études rétrospectives ont été réalisées pour chacun d'eux et leurs conclusions ont été discutées lors d'ateliers nationaux multi-acteurs dans chacun des pays concernés.

This document examines the experiences of six dams built in West Africa between the late 1970s and late 1990s: the Niandouba and Confluent in Senegal, the Sélingué in Mali, and the Bagré, Kompienga and Moussodougou dams in Burkina Faso. Retrospective studies were conducted for each of these dams and their conclusions discussed in multi-stakeholder national workshops in each country.
