Water Dialogue

About This Project

The Future of Water Security in South Africa and SADC

Water, an immensely valuable resource, is becoming scarcer, and radical measures need to be put in place to stop the water crisis globally. Water scarcity is real: it affects an excess of 2.8 billion people in the world – climate change, and overuse of water and poor upkeep of infrastructure development are exacerbating the already volatile situation. South Africa, which is considered a water scarce country, is already experiencing water shedding in some provinces like Kwa-Zulu Natal. ls water the new business risk? If so, how should companies respond? In a collaboration between the Oliver & Adelaide Tambo Foundation and the Gordon Institute of Business Science, a dialogue around key questions concerning South Africa’s water options was held.
