Nordic support for Zambezi valley development
Three Nordic countries, namely Sweden, Denmark and
Norway, have pledged to disburse 35 million Swedish
Crowns (about $3.7 million) for the implementation of
the Water Resources Integrated Management Strategy for
the Zambezi river basin, for the next three years.
An agreement to this end has been signed between the
Zambezi River Authority (ZRA), representing the Water
Sector Coordinating Unit of the Southern African
Development Community, (SADC-WSCU) and the
international development agencies of Sweden, Norway
and Denmark, namely SIDA, NORAD and DANIDA.
The project envisages the establishment of a regional
environment favourable to the integrated management of
the water resources by the countries along the
Zambezi.
A key role in this environment would be played by a
Zambezi River Basin Commission (ZAMCOM), to be
created, with the task of establishing a legal
framework for the management of the basin. The project
also emphasises the need to use consultants from all
the countries that share the Zambezi, assisted by
national experts from ministries dealing with the
area. From Mozambique, these experts will be appointed
by the National Water Board.
