Water To Kill For by Jacob Zocherman (KONTINENT)
Dam construction in southern Ethiopia is meant to guarantee large parts of the Ethiopian energy supply, but the price is high: over a half million people risk starvation when the river they live on is choked off. Now the conflict for resources is escalating and many fear a deadly war for water in Turkana, Kenya's borderland to Ethiopia, Uganda and South Sudan. Turkana's water, already a root cause for widespread armed conflicts, particularly in the northern parts of the region. People there live according to older traditions. Most of them support themselves by herding and live a nomadic life, wandering in search of water and pasturelands. But in recent years extreme drought has made it difficult to find water for livestock. - The next war won't be about oil. It will be about water. And that war is already here, says Joseph Elim, coordinator at Riam Riam, Turkana's network for preventing conflicts. (kontinent)
