Ephemeral River Basins project newsletter

The first newsletter of the project, River Basin Management of Ephemeral Rivers in SADC, arrived in HOORC's Library today. The newsletter aims to provide a forum for discussion of issues related to shared management of natural resources in the three ephemeral basins that are the focus of the project: the Boteti River Basin in Botswana, the Fish River Basin in Namibia and the Buffels River Basin in South Africa. HOORC and the Desert Research Foundation of Namibia are partners in the project.

This issue of the newsletter mentions local reaction to the high levels of water that have flowed into the Boteti this year. You can request a copy of the newsletter from the Editor, ERB Newsletter, P.O. Box 20232, Windhoek, Namibia, laura.chesnut@drfn.org.na or read it HOORC's Library.
