Transfrontier water management: Reducing conflict and poverty through permanent water provisions in the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area

This case study leaflet details CRIDF’s exploration of transfrontier management solutions throughout the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, which is home to over three million people. Such areas are being widely adopted in Southern Africa to ensure that key ecological processes continue to function where borders have divided ecosystems, river basins and wildlife dispersal corridors. CRIDF offered technical expertise to improve shared water management and climate resilient infrastructure in the five countries bordering Kavango-Zambezi. CRIDF quickly built small-scale drip irrigation systems, domestic water supply systems and wildlife fencing, protecting communities from wildlife movement.
