This is particularly relevant in Africa where water use and allocation have been a source of increased tension or have served to strengthen cooperation in various river basins or transboundary waters across the Continent.

The Hidden Wealth of Nations: Groundwater in Times of Climate Change (UN 2023 Water Conference Side Event)
Groundwater is a crucial component of the water cycle and is available almost everywhere on Earth in sufficient quantity and adequate quality to sustain water supply.
