Southern Africa Water Wire

The Southern Africa Water Wire provides in-depth coverage of a diverse range of water-related issues in Southern Africa, linking water to economic development, social well-being and environmental protection. Local journalists from across the region explore the challenges, failures and successes of managing this vital resource. The Southern African Water Wire is commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) in delegated cooperation with the UK Department for International Development (DFID) and the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) on behalf of the SADC Secretariat. The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) is implementing the partnership programme in cooperation with the Inter Press Service (IPS) Africa.
