World Meteorological Organisation: State of Global Water Resources 2021

The report launched in November 2022 examined the volume of water flowing through rivers. In Africa, major rivers such as the Niger, Volta, Nile, and Congo had below-average water flow in 2021




Understanding water - spatial and temporal distribution, quantity, and quality - is essential for national climate mitigation and adaptation strategies.

The aim of this annual stocktake is to support the monitoring and management of global freshwater resources in an era of growing demand and limited supplies.

Through the financing of Projects and support to related institutions, GMES and Africa is active in the field of Water management in all the 5 African regions, North with OSS, West with CSE, East with RCMRD, Central with CICOS, and South with SASSCAL.
