SADC has, for the last two years, been engaged in a process of developing a
Regional Indicative Strategic Development Plan. It has released a
draft, dated March 26, for discussion with stakeholders in each SADC member
state. The Department of Water Affairs in South Africa has posted the
draft document on its website (www.dwaf.gov.za) as part of its stakeholder
consultation process.
However the lengthy document has not been posted in a the most user
friendly format: SARPN has therefore decided to give persons across SADC
the opportunity to access relevant chapters of the document in an easier
format.
