GWP-WA is progressing on PREE/IUCN activities implementation

During the last months the Executive Secretariat coordinated the field missions carried out by the consultants of the AGRISTUDIO/ID SAHEL consortium in 4 Fouta Djalon countries from November 16 to December 04, 2021. The consultants’ firm had submitted their start-up report of the mission on the realization of a prospective diagnosis of the Fouta Djallon massif with the analysis of the opportunities and the proposal of the options/priorities of restoration of the degraded ecosystems of the Massif. This report was validated after some amendments by GWP-WA.

Additionally, some work was done with the submission by the consultant and the validation of the inception report of the study mission on "the realization of two case studies on the management and sustainable exploitation of fisheries in the Chari/Logone sub-basin and the Inner Niger Delta".

This was followed by the launching of the data collection process for the realization of the inventory of the initiatives of management and exploitation of fisheries at the level of the promoters. This involved the recruitment of three national consultants for Cameroon, Mali and Chad. These country consultants were then trained on the data collection tools by the team of Senior Consultants recruited by GWP-WA to conduct the mission.

Then there was the submission by the consultant of the inception report of the mission to support the strengthening of information systems on water, environment and climate in West and Central Africa. The report was then amended by GWP-WA and its partners and transmitted to the consultant.
