dc.description.abstract | The book addresses the situation of water and wastewater management in Africa from present angle, underpinned by selected case studies. The publication of this book will also be the start of a book series that in more detail critically reviews, discusses, and analyses the water and wastewater situation and management in different regions and countries worldwide. Further, the book provides a useful resource for scientists, researchers and practitioners dealing with water and wastewater management. The book also takes a comparative look at traditional methods of water management in Africa that have guaranteed supply for centuries, in many cases integrating sustainability considerations. In line with SDG 15.5, which aims to protect the biodiversity and natural habitats, this book, therefore, offers insight into the relevance of the traditional knowledge and practices to modern approaches on sustainable water management. | en_US |
