| Résumé : | Water diplomacy provides a way to manage shared water resources through inclusive, cooperative, and flexible methods. In the Nile Basin, the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) has become a key point of regional tension. It highlights the complicated interactions of water uncertainty, power imbalances, and climate change. This study looks at how cooperation can be built in this context, using a review of water data, developments in the basin, and literature on water governance. The analysis considers both current and future conditions to assess the short- and long-term impacts of GERD operations, especially for stakeholders in Egypt and Sudan. While developing hydropower can bring benefits like less evaporation and better flood management, water security downstream, ecosystem services, and farming livelihoods still face risks. The research stresses the need for open dialogue, shared governance, and flexible strategies that take into account the basin's political and ecological diversity. It pushes for moving away from power-focused negotiations towards cooperation frameworks based on evidence and diplomacy. These frameworks should be able to handle changing climate patterns and varying water needs. By looking at these connected issues, the paper adds to discussions on fair and sustainable management of shared water in the Nile Basin. |
