The days when growth was measured just in economic terms are counted. What good is economic growth anyway, if it jeopardises the planet, our life support system, and therefore societal and environmental wellbeing, and ultimately, economic sustainability?
"Young people are a very important force for both sustainable development and rational management of water resources. In the West African sub-region, this force is very under-used.
