Building climate resilience through virtual water and nexus thinking in SADC: A think ‘peace’

This book explores the Southern African Development Community context with respect to water, the economy, hydro-politics, development, energy and virtual water. The book includes a summary of the development of CRIDF’s Virtual Water Database and discusses key results around virtual water trade in agricultural products and electricity. It also postulates the future of the Southern African Development Community under the pressures of climate change and water scarcity; examines virtual water in the context of national and regional development planning; and explores the role of private sector stewardship and water footprinting in managing water in the economy.
