In African Basin Management Organizations - Contribution to Pollution Prevention of Transboundary Water Resources, Komlan Sangbana highlights how the protection of water resources and their ecosystems has become a key focus of basin organizations in Africa. The development, adoption and implementation of pollution control standards by basin organizations have widened the remit and greatly strengthened the role of these institutions. As such, basin organizations have become central actors in the domain of African regional law for the protection of freshwater resources. This monograph analyses the variety of functions and tasks that have been entrusted to African basin organizations to prevent pollution damage and provides some avenues for strengthening the work they perform to protect river systems.

Komlan Sangbana, Ph.D. (2016), University of Geneva, is Legal Officer with the Secretariat of the Water Convention (UNECE) and Fellow at the Platform for International Water Law. He has published many articles, chapters and books on international water law, including La protection des eaux douces transfrontière contre la pollution: dimensions normatives et institutionnelles.
