21. Conclusion
• The Nile Basin is complex river basin and highly variable
in terms of water availability, development, use and
management t
• There is no comprehensive and adequate information
system
y
• There are quite a lot of actors in the Basin but not well
networked and interacting
• The Nile Basin still possesses high potential for
development, but require breakthrough in win-win
cooperation
• O t t of Nile BFP could significantly contribute t
