La vision africaine 2025 de l'eau fait de cette ressource naturelle un outil contribuant à la réduction de la pauvreté, au développement socioéconomique, à la coopération régionale et à l'environnement. La CEDEAO lui dédie une politique exclusive et lui accorde une place prépondérante dans sa politique agricole, lui consacre une plateforme de dialogue sur les grandes infrastructures hydrauliques. L'UMOA en fait le cheval de bataille de sa politique agricole, une orientation stratégique pour la gestion des eaux partagées, la gestion de la transhumance transfrontalière et la gestion des ressources halieutiques. Voici une contribution à la connaissance des politiques internationales pour l'eau.

Water is a limited natural resource indispensable for human existence. Water resources exist in the form of glaciers, oceans, rainwater, groundwater, and surface water. Uncontrolled population growth, urbanization, and inefficient management of natural resources have hastened the pace and impact of climate change. Floods and droughts related to climate change occur more frequently, destructing the livelihood of people and disrupting the fragile ecosystem. The need for conservation of available water resources and devising strategies for resource management is very relevant in the current scenario and this book deals precisely with water resources and their management. It provides abundant and relevant information on all aspects related to water resources, including the need for conservation, water management strategies in different parts of the world, the impact of climate change on water management, pollution of water resources and treatment, and so forth. The book will motivate readers and scientists alike to look further and make concerted efforts towards promoting the preservation and conservation of water resources.

One of the main reasons cited for inadequate representation of biodiversity in the development processes is a lack of readily available information on inland water taxa. In response to this need for basic for information on species, the IUCN Species Programme conducted a regional assessment of the status and distribution of 2,261 taxa of freshwater fishes, molluscs, odonates, crabs and selected families of aquatic plants from throughout central Africa. This study is based on the collation and analysis of existing information, and the knowledge of regional experts.
