dc.description.abstractAs cities have grown in contexts of increasing pressure on water resources, case studies have begun to emerge of water transfers and ‘reallocations’ from rural to urban areas. The Ouagadougou-Ziga dam case is an example of rural to urban water transfer. This detailed report provides findings from a study in Burkina Faso. The report describes emerging conflicts over water usage in terms of current law and water policy. The government, through the Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources (MAHRH) is responsible for ‘integration of water resources’ (Article 13) and overseeing different demands. The capital city of Ouagadougou is located in the semi-arid central plateau of the country.en
