description

The Nile Basin Initiative (NBI) was launched in 1999 to promote the peaceful and concerted management of the waters of the Nile. It now brings together Burundi, Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, Sudan, South Sudan and Tanzania. The aim of this international organisation is to achieve sustainable socio-economic development through the equitable use of water resources in the Nile Basin.

Missions
& Services

BRL Ingénierie, which has been supporting the NBI in its activities for more than 15 years, is currently assisting it in drawing up an integrated water resources management plan and an associated investment programme in the areas of access to water, energy security, food security, ecosystem protection, climate resilience and governance.

"Today, on the eve of the entry into force of the Nile Basin Commission (which will replace the NBI), and at a time when tensions are high between certain countries in the basin, BRL Ingénierie's role is essential in analysing and communicating technical solutions for the equitable management of water resources to political decision-makers, as well as in supporting the implementation of these solutions."
