Abstract EN
The paper aimed at identifying the water scarcity effect on economic growth in MENA countries using a panel data analysis during 1975-2017.
The findings showed that there is a negative effect of excess in water consumption on economic growth, which means that augmentation of water consumption rates decelerates economic growth for most MENA countries.
