| Abstract: | The availability and access to water strongly influences patterns of economic growth and
social development (Alan, 2002). In this regard, the Southern African region faces
considerable challenges in meeting the social and economic needs of its populations (Hirji et
al., 2002). It has become increasingly important that water resource development takes place
in the context of integrated water resource management (IWRM) with its main principles of
equity (regarding access), efficiency (economic) and sustainability (environment). |
