Project Funding

With financial assistance from Germany and France several meetings and special workshops were held, among others, in Cairo in 1992 and 1994 and in Tunis in 1997 with the participation of;

• The OSS,
• The countries sharing the SASS and NSAS basins,
• The international co-operation partners, in particular, UNESCO-FIDA-FAO and scientific organisations e.g., the OATC, BGR, BRGM, ACSAD, CEDARE and the CILSS/AGRHYMET.

In the periods between workshops, experts and national institutions in each country were asked to draw up technical work documents that would contribute to establish project documents for both basins.

The NWSAS phase II is financed by three cooperation partners:

• DDC-SWISS
• FEM-PNUE
• FFEM-FRANCE
