Nile Water Rights

More about the book

Focusing on the intricacies of international water law, this book examines the legal frameworks surrounding the Nile River and shared freshwater resources. It evaluates the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Non-Navigational Uses of International Watercourses and the implications of the 2010 Cooperative Framework Agreement, particularly in light of South Sudan's secession. The text offers recommendations for amending the Agreement and emphasizes the principle of equitable and reasonable use, making it a vital resource for both scholars and practitioners in the field.
