Conclusions and recommendation
There is potential for incorporating complementary grey and green infrastructure as sustainable
infrastructure across Africa, especially as a tool that can achieve different targets under SDG6 and address
the Energy-Food-Water Nexus challenge. However, at first glance, the conditions and enabling environment
for applying this appear to be more limited than in other global locations. The study reveals a number of
factors that are important for successfully developing sustainable infrastructure - including clear connections
between water source and beneficiaries, the presence of active leadership, etc., which should enable more
extensive use in the future and take the lead.
