Our Core Functions

The Water Resources Development core function assists Member States to identify and prepare investment projects, which are economically viable, environmentally friendly and socially acceptable as well as mobilize financial and technical resources for their implementation.

Under this core function, Nile-SEC strengthens Member States’ institutional and technical capacities and provides shared knowledge bases to support decision making and action at local levels. This includes generating basin wide science based information and making available to Member States, analytic tools, the necessary policy instruments and early warning systems as key pre-requisites for safeguarding and managing the shared Nile Basin water resources in a sustainable manner.

The Basin Cooperation core function actively provides the first and only all-inclusive and neutral regional platform for Member States to discuss with trust and confidence, how to collectively take care of and jointly use the shared Nile Basin water and related resources. This is in order to maximize win-win benefits for current and future generations and minimize risks and costs.
