Only 4% of women live in countries where water management fully considers the needs of women and girls.

Water scarcity threatens both livelihoods and growth. In the Sahel, it could cut annual GDP by 6%.

To build resilience, we joined partners in #BurkinaFaso to launch the first @WorldBankGroup Academy in Africa and a new regional Water Center—advancing water security and jobs.

"Water is life, but clean water is health and hope."

In #Niger's conflict-affected Tillabéri region, clean water is just the beginning. Families are rebuilding their lives one harvest, one job, one school enrollment at a time. 🌱

For People. For Food. For Planet.

Heads of State, ministers, leaders of regional institutions, development partners, the private sector gather today at the African Water Forum in 🇹🇩 to accelerate investments & regional cooperation for water security.

[World Bank Water @WorldBankWater]

90% of Africa’s water flows through 63 transboundary basins, so cooperation is vital –but many regions remain data-poor

@ciwaprogram's #WaterDataRevolution bridges the gap with satellite tools, regional dashboards & capacity building.

Imagine a mangrove restoration project.

It starts in one country, but its benefits ripple outward, boosting food security, storm protection + climate mitigation for an entire region. 

This is the goal of the Framework for Financial Incentives:  https://t.co/dOrRnaKrl1

Through vital cooperation, @CIWAprogram helps safeguard the ecological future of #Africa's transboundary rivers & lakes ensuring biodiversity & vital ecosystem services thrive.
