Making water infrastructure investment decisions in a changing climate: A political economy study of river basin development in Ghana

  Report     Volta River Basin     wise up  

This report presents the results of a political economy analysis of decision-making over river basin management and development in Ghana. It is aimed at identifying entry points for natural infrastructure as a solution for climate change adaptation and sustainable development. Our analysis identified three entry points for natural infrastructure solutions: i) development of long-term development strategies at national and subnational levels; ii) taking advantage of opportunities for cooperation at the basin level and international climate finance; and iii) investing in awareness-raising and capacity-building for environmental management and protection at the local level.
