There should be SADC Member States’ support and commitment to trans‐boundary water
resources development and management through the creation of an enabling environment
(incentives, policies and regulations), conducive to private sector attraction and retention;
There should be an effective and financially sustainable system for data collection, assessment
and dissemination at national, river basin and regional levels;
There should be continued political will, public awareness and commitment among all;
The SADC Member State national projects should supplement the RIDMP projects so that the
Vision 2027 Water Sector targets are easier and quicker to achieve. These SADC Member State
national projects should be regularly reported on and be included in the SADC Water Sector
database; and
An effective monitoring and evaluation system should be put in place to ensure that any
bottlenecks are identified promptly and removed, while projects off‐track are refocused to
facilitate the achievement of the RIDMP.
