Having recognized their common concerns and interests, the Nile riparian countries established in 1999 the Nile Basin Initiative (NBI) whose vision is “to achieve sustainable socio-economic development through the equitable utilization of, and benefit from, the common Nile Basin water resources.”

To translate this shared vision into action, the NBI launched a Strategic Action Program which includes two complementary components: a basin-wide Shared Vision Program (SVP) and Subsidiary Action Programs (SAPs). The Applied Training Project is one of the thematic projects to be implemented basin-wide to help establish a foundation for trans-boundary regional  cooperation and create an enabling environment conducive to investments and action on ground within an agreed basin-wide framework.
