Dear colleagues,
Please find attached a 3-page synthesis of the famous Thayer Scudder’s book entitled
The future of large dams (2005), a thorough analysis of the social impacts of large dams in developing countries which serves as an extension of the report of the World Commission on Dams (2000).
A very good overview of the challenges we know regarding the implementation of large water infrastructure projects.
Best regards,
Jérôme KOUNDOUNO
