Assessment
of Pollution Status and Vulnerability of Water Supply Aquifers
of African Cities
Is
a joint Project of UNEP-DEWA in collaboration with UNESCO-IHP
as the implementing agency, UN-Habitat and ECA as regional
and political partners. The project aims to build on the successes
achieved in earlier work ( see "Urban
Pollution of Surficial and Groundwater Aquifers in Africa")
carried out in six (Benin, Burkina Faso, CÔte d'Ivoire,
Mali, Niger and Senegal) West African countries and includes
four new Anglophone countries i.e. Ghana, Ethiopia, Kenya and
Zambia. Its aim is to determine the status and vulnerability
of groundwater supplies in cities of the selected countries,
establish a network for exchange of related information, and
develop suitable methodologies for assessing and monitoring
of real and potential contamination of shallow and deeper groundwater
aquifers ...
