Niger River Basin Climate Risk Assessment PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 09 June 2020 08:59

- Managing the present impacts of the intra-seasonal and inter-annual variability of the Basin’s climate has the potential to better prepare water managers for dealing with long-term climate change impacts.
- Global climate models project only modest changes in precipitation over the Basin (mostly between -6% and +7%, on average +2%) and all climate models project significant increases in temperature, mostly between 1.50C and 30C for 2050 (on average 2.10C or 8%). The average projected decline in runoff is only about 2%; most models project an average change in runoff between -18% and +10% with a maximum projected decline of 20%; 25% of GCM runs project a decline of at least 10%.

Phase 1 : « Scoping » pour déterminer la configuration du barrage de Fomi

Le barrage Fomi est un projet clef de l’ABN qui s’insère dans un vaste ensemble de programmes et d’infrastructures dont l’échelle de mesure est le bassin versant du fleuve Niger. Le réservoir de Fomi constituerait le réservoir de tête d’un complexe linéaire de milieux  naturels, de milieux aménagés et d’autres barrages en aval.

Study of elaboration of an Action Plan for the Sustainable Development of the Niger Basin - Phase 1 : Assessment and analysis PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 04 October 2012 10:38

Plans to prepare the Action Plan for Sustainable Development (SDAP) were first made in February 2002 at the 7th Summit of Heads of State and Governments in Abuja. The summit requested that the Niger Basin Authority (NBA) develop a clear, shared vision in order to create a cooperation-instigating environment.


When the Heads of State and Government signed the Paris Declaration in April 2004, it was a reiteration of the same request, recognising the need for all to adopt integrated water resource
management principles. Last of all, at their meeting in May 2005, the Council of Ministers of the NBA described the SDAP as being a strategic document to define and guide the "shared vision" process conducted by all the Niger Basin countries by means of integrated management of their water resources and the associated ecosystems in order to improve the living standards and the prosperity of their populations by 2025.
This report is the SDAP first phase report, the Appraisal Report. In other words, it is an assessment of the issues and priority development themes in the Niger catchment area.
The top priority concerns and potential action of the SDAP are (i) the conservation of the basin's ecosystems, (ii) the development of socio-economic infrastructure, and (iii) capacity building and stakeholder involvement. These priority concerns are all intricately linked to sustainable development which cannot exist without them.

The Master Plan for Development and Management of the Niger Basin under the Action Plan for the Sustainable Development of the Niger Basin (SDAP) translates the 2025 Shared Vision into tangible actions to alleviate poverty, protect the Niger Basin environment and strengthen cooperation between NBA member countries. The definition of the shared vision was adopted in 2005 by the NBA council of ministers:


"The Niger Basin, a shared region of sustainable development achieved through the comprehensive, integrated management of water resources and their associated ecosystems, to improve everyday living standards and prosperity by 2025."
The strategic guidelines for development and the operational instructions and technical principles for its implementation are derived directly from the nine principles of the Paris Declaration.
