An essential source of freshwater in Africa, Lake Chad was once one of the largest lakes on the continent. According to the Lake Chad Basin Commission, it has shrunk by more than 90 per cent over the past 60 years due to droughts and decreased rainfall. It now faces an uncertain water future. According to the United Nations, nearly 30 million people rely on this body of water.
