Matara James Kamau, R52/68513/2013 This research project has been submitted for examination with my permission as the University supervisor Signature………………………………...Date…………………………………… Prof. Maria Nzomo ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT First and foremost, all thanks to God Almighty for the strength and ability to pursue this degree. For without him, there would be no me. I wish to express my sincere thanks to Professor Maria Nzomo the research supervisor for her tireless effort and professional guidance in making this project a success. I also extend my deepest gratitude to entire university academic staff in particular those working in the Institute of Diplomacy and International Studies. iii DEDICATION I dedicate this research project to my entire Matara‘s family for moral and financial support during the time of research iv ABSTRACT This study focused on River Nile Politics, a study of the role of South Sudan. The study relates to the emergence of a new state amongst existing riparian states and how this may resonate with trans-boundary conflicts. The independence of South Sudan has been revealed in this study to have a mixture of unanswered questions. The study is grounded on Collier- Hoeffer theory analysed the trans-boundary conflict based on the framework of many variable including: identities, economics, religion and social status in the Nile basin.

  • The Nile Dam Dispute: Issues for Congress
    INSIGHTi The Nile Dam Dispute: Issues for Congress July 27, 2020 Overview A long-running dispute between Ethiopia, Egypt, and Sudan over the waters of the Nile flared in 2020, as Ethiopia moves toward completion of Africa’s largest hydroelectric power project, the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD). The domestic stakes are high for both Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, who seeks to guide Ethiopia through a fragile political transition, and Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah al Sisi, who seeks to preserve Egypt’s share of the Nile amidst population growth, pollution, and rising sea levels. Efforts to resolve the conflict, including by the United States, have yet to result in a final agreement. Alongside the potential for the dispute to escalate, failure to reach an accord could set a negative precedent for transboundary water cooperation at a time of growing global concern over climate change, demographic growth, and resource scarcity. Background For Ethiopia, where almost 70% the rural population lacks access to electricity, the GERD would significantly expand domestic power capacity and allow the country to sell excess electricity to its neighbors. When construction began on the $4 billion project in 2011, then-Prime Minister Meles Zenawi pledged that Ethiopia would finance the project itself, funding it through government bonds, donations, taxes, and a portion of civil servants’ salaries. He envisioned the 6,000-megawatt GERD as powering Ethiopia’s development and helping to lift its population out of poverty. The project has been a source of national pride for Ethiopians, and a rallying point amidst recent domestic troubles.

  • Evolving Approaches to Nile Waters Management
    THE NILE BASIN: EVOLVING APPROACHES TO NILE WATERS MANAGEMENT J. Anthony Allan, SOAS, University of London UK, [email protected] Occasional Paper 20 SOAS Water Issues Group June 1999 Abstract The paper will review briefly to hydraulic engineering history and the hydropolitical contexts of such development. After a century of activity inspired by an ambitious hydraulic mission the numerous stakeholders in the Nile system are currently influenced by a new water resources mission inspired by environmental and economic principles. The decade of the 1990s, in the post-Cold War era, has witnessed considerable positive progress towards a co- operative international relations regime over Nile waters. This progress has been made despite the numerous armed conflicts in the Horn of Africa, in the south of Sudan and in Rwanda and neighbouring territories. None of these conflicts has been water related; nor has there been any attempt to date to link Nile waters to other conflictual issues as is usual in other MENA (Middle East and North Africa) river basins. The analysis will be informed by international relations theory and illustrated by observation of the contribution of the upstream and downstream riparians to the very important discourse on an as yet very partially developed river basin. Introduction At the end of the twentieth century the Nile hydrological system is of major economic significance to two of its riparians, Egypt and the Sudan; its waters could be of economic significance to at least four of its other riparians. A number of forces external to the Nile Basin have shaped the history of water resource development in the Basin in the past century.

  • Understanding the Nile Basin Initiative Balancing Historical Rights, National Needs and Regional Interests
    Understanding the Nile Basin Initiative Balancing historical rights, national needs and regional interests By Hanne Knaepen and Bruce Byiers* This background paper is part of a series on the Political Economy Dynamics of Regional Organisations (PEDRO). It was prepared in March 2017. In line with ECDPM's mission to inform and facilitate EU-Africa policy dialogue, and financed by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, BMZ, the studies analyse key policy areas of seventeen regional organisations in Sub-Saharan Africa. In doing so they address three broad questions: What is the political traction of the organisations around different policy areas? What are the key member state interests in the regional agenda? What are the areas with most future traction for regional organisations to promote cooperation and integration around specific areas? The studies aim to advance thinking on how regional policies play out in practice, and ways to promote politically feasible and adaptive approaches to regional cooperation and integration.

  • Water Sharing in the Nile River Valley
    PROJECT GNV011 : USING GIS/REMOTE SENSING FOR THE SUSTAINABLE USE OF NATURAL RESOURCES Water Sharing in the Nile River Valley Diana Rizzolio Karyabwite UNEP/DEWA/GRID -Geneva January -March 1999 January-June 2000 Water Sharing in the Nile River Valley ABSTRACT The issue of freshwater is one of highest priority for the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The Nile Basin by its size, political divisions and history constitutes a major freshwater-related environmental resource and focus of attention. UNEP/DEWA/GRID-Geneva initiated several case studies stressing a river basin approach to the integrated and sustainable management of freshwater resources. In 1998 GRID-Geneva started a project on Water Sharing in the Nile River Basin. The Nile Valley project was set up to prepare an experimental methodology to identify the potential water-related issues in a watershed. The first stage of the project consisted of the compilation of available geoferenced data sets for the Nile valley region to be used as inputs for water bala nce modelling; and led to the elaboration of a first report1. Available georeferenced data sets have been stored in Arc/Info-ArcView. They serve as inputs for water balance modelling. General data on transboundary water sharing and on the Nile River Basin were also collected. Several international projects operating in the Nile River Valley are oriented towards Nile Basin water management, using GIS and remote sensing techniques. Therefore any continuation of the GRID- Geneva Nile River project should be linked with and integrated into one of these successful field programmes. 1 Booth J., Jaquet J.-M., December 1998.
