Water Sustainability in Africa

Hey Hannah,
here are a few blabs I found online on water sustainability in Africa... Amidst talks of cholera and water wars, I really got interested in water resources and thought I look up some articles....
Water politics is a really tricky situation.. I know most articles seem to refer back to foreign aid and the MDGs, but the regional economic communities could be a source of financial support

Some other Documentaries

Liberia an Uncivil War: Lib-West- DVD 1763 You can also find clips on You-Yube

It's pretty good, but keep in mind that it's far from objective, and somewhat graphic.

Also, the other half of the story:

Liberia a fragile peace: Lib-West- DVD 1978

Not Necessarily from our Countries,

but... a great documentary that deals with multiple issues facing the continent, especially interconnectivity throughout the continent and the world.

It's in Library West DVD #2152, or legal information centre.
