GWP WA at the Green Climate Fund (GCF) workshop in South Africa

A West African delegation of 10 participants from Burkina Faso, Ghana, Mali and the regional level have taken part into the Green Climate Fund (GCF) workshop in South Africa on the financing of water-related projects. Their participation was made possible through the Water, Climate and Development Programme (WACDEP) to this meeting from 19 to 21 September 2018.

During the workshop, representatives from each country had the opportunity to present their ideas for projects that were amended and deepened with the support of the facilitators and partners present from the GCF Secretariat, GWP, AfDB and GCF Access Entities.

At the end of the workshop, the Africa Project Preparation Partnership for Climate Resilient Water Projects was launched to provide a platform for countries to exchange knowledge and lessons as their experience in preparing, financing, and implementing water projects grows, in particular, in the context of the GCF.
