This report describes the water accounting study for the Nile River
Basin carried out by IHE-Delft using the Water Productivity (WaPOR)
data portal of the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO).The
Nile River Basin faces a huge challenge in terms of water security.
With an expected doubling of the population in the basin in the
next twenty-five years, water supply in the basin will be further
depleted as demands for agriculture, domestic and industry
continues to grow. Water availability in the basin will also be
threatened by climate change and variability and pollution from
increased agricultural and industrial activities and from urban
areas. However with limited up-to-date ground observations, in
terms of duration, completeness, and quality of the
hydro-meteorological records it is difficult to draw an appropriate
picture of the water resources conditions. The Water Accounting
Plus (WA+) system designed by IHE Delft with its partners FAO and
IWMI has been applied to gain full insights into the state of the
water resources in the basin
