Abstract
Water is a finite resource which is unevenly distributed in time and space and which becomes progressively scarce as demand increases for its various competing uses.Where the water resources are shared by more than one state, the sharing of this finite resource can become complex and problematic bearing in mind the different social, environmental and economic needs of each riparian state, the differing state priorities, water pricing policies and economic development levels among other differences.This paper attempts to analyse how the riparian states of the Zambezi River Basin may arrive best at equitably and sustainably sharing the water resources of the Zambezi River Basin by proposing adoption of various principles and policies which should build on and support the project outputs of the Zambezi River Basin Action Plan which is currently being undertaken for the Zambezi River Basin.
