Water storage: a contribution to climate change adaptation in Africa
Water storage can help to safeguard livelihoods and reduce rural poverty.

some cases, may worsen the negative impacts of climate change. More systematic
planning is required to ensure suitable storage systems that support development
targets, as an international research project demonstrates.
