Water in Africa is an important issue encompassing the sources, distribution and economic uses of the water resources on the continent. Overall, Africa has about 9% of the world's fresh water resources and 16% of the world's population. Among its rivers are the Congo, Nile, Zambezi, Niger and Lake Victoria, considered the world’s second largest lake. Yet the continent is the second driest in the world, with millions of Africans still suffering from water shortages throughout the year.

  • المياه في أفريقيا، تشمل هذه القضية المهمة مصادر الموارد المائية وتوزيعها واستخداماتها الاقتصادية في القارة. تمتلك أفريقيا عمومًا حوالي 9% من موارد المياه العذبة في العالم و16% من سكان العالم. تشمل أنهارها الكونغو والنيل وزمبيزي والنيجر، وتحوي بحيرة فيكتوريا، ثاني أكبر بحيرة في العالم. تعدّ هذه القارة رغم ذلك ثاني أكثر القارات جفافًا، إذ يعاني ملايين الأفارقة من نقص المياه على مدار العام.
