The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) will enhance collaboration with partners to leverage the water-energy-food nexus as a strategy for conflict prevention, according to the Vice President of the ECOWAS Commission, Damtien Tchintchibidja.

Speaking at a high-level event organised by the German International Cooperation Agency (GiZ) during the 61st annual Munich Security Conference, Tchintchibidja highlighted the commission’s focus on using natural resource management to bolster regional stability and security.

“The ECOWAS region, with its enormous natural resources, has significant potential for economic growth and prosperity,” she said. “However, it is currently facing issues related to access and sharing of natural resources, which affect the regional stability, security, peace, and well-being of our populations.”

Tchintchibidja identified key drivers of conflict, including limited water access, farmland encroachment by cattle, land ownership disputes, and the impact of climate change on pastoralist communities.
