The International Panel of Experts (IPoE) on the Grand Ethiopian
Renaissance Dam (GERD) has submitted its final report to the governments
of the three riparian states-Ethiopia, Egypt and the Sudan. Ethiopia in
good faith called the two riparian states to form the international
panel of experts so as to investigate if the GERD will cause any
significant negative effect to the downstream states.
