Negotiating Nile infrastructure management should consider climate change uncertainties
Negotiating Nile infrastructure management should consider climate change uncertainties
High uncertainty exists in the projected climate change impacts on the Nile’s economies and water-dependent sectors. Under these uncertainties, managing the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam cooperatively and adaptively can produce economic and water management benefits for Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt.
