This book puts the spotlight on Southern Africa, presenting a
cutting-edge concept never previously explored in the context of
climate change and putting forward arguments for regional
integration and cooperation. The Climate Resilient Infrastructure
Development Facility (CRIDF) is the new water infrastructure
program of the UK Department for International Development (DFID)
for Southern Africa. The CRIDF promotes the establishment of small
to medium-scale infrastructure across the Southern African
Development Community (SADC) through technical assistance aimed at
developing sustainable pro-poor projects, while also facilitating
access to the financial resources needed to deliver said
infrastructure. Further, it focuses on regional water resource
management goals and basin plans, as well as on building climate
resilience for the beneficiary communities. The Facility's Virtual
Water and Nexus Project works to improve regional peace dividends
by translating the Nexus concept into national and regional
policies; it ultimately promotes sovereign security through greater
regional integration across the water, food and energy sectors,
while taking into account potential benefits in connection with
carbon sequestration and emission mitigation.
