Africa Initiative Featured in USAID's Global Waters Magazine
(08/24/12)
Partnerships of the Africa-U.S. Higher Education Initiative were featured in an August 2012 Global Waters magazine article that examines efforts to address water resource management issues in the region. Global Waters is a publication of the United States Agency for International Development.
The article by C. Zeilberger looks at the dynamics of why access to clean water is pivotal to health, agricultural, and social issues in sub-Saharan Africa—and how the higher education partnerships of the Africa Initiative are uniquely positioned to make a positive difference in resolving those issues.
