Central East Africa / Lake Kivu
Nowadays, the basin faces a multitude of threats arising from unsustainable practices in agriculture and forestry as well as poor land and catchment management, with many of these threats expected to worsen under climate change.
The project aims at improving the hydrological and operational management of Lake Kivu and the Ruzizi River, while pursuing an integrated and Nexus-based approach.
The project started in 2019 and is led by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) in cooperation with the regional partner ABAKIR (Autorité du Bassin du Lac Kivu et de la Rivière Ruzizi).
