A new budget proposal submitted for EU approval includes a budget line of 50,000 to support the implementation of demonstration projects in countries. The projects proposed by each country were initially budgeted to be implemented with much more funds, so it was asked from each country to resize the projects to fit the proposed budget or raise funds at national level to complement.
Niger has already sent a new proposal of redesigned project and Burkina and Benin have yet to do so because of national constraints that slows down the gathering of stakeholders.
A poposal of agreement to be signed between GWP-WA nad CWP for the implementation of the demonstration projects was shared in the PMT and is to be finalized.
