Global Water Partnership West Africa and the Country Water Partnership of Ghana (CWP-Ghana) jointly with the ECOWAS Water Resources Management Center (WRMC), the World Bank (WB) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) organized on October 4, 2022, the regional dissemination workshop on the EPIC Response Framework: innovative governance for flood and drought risk management.

A 3-part webinar series took place in February and March to highlight and clarify linkages between water and climate in national climate action plans, such as the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), the National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), and various investment mechanisms. “For me, the stories from countries were the best part. I think they speak to all of us and tell us what it's really like to change theory into implementation on the ground,” said Dani Gaillard-Picher, GWP Global Coordinator for Water and Climate Processes, in her summary of the series.

We strengthen water management and governance processes by ensuring our 2800+ registered partners are networked and share data and knowledge.

A two-day workshop on the Climate-Land-Energy-Water (CLEWs) modelling framework and its use in the Nexus Assessment of the Drina River Basin took place on 8,9 July 2021. The purpose of the workshop was to familiarise participants with the Climate, Land, Energy and Water systems (CLEWs) nexus methodology, used to quantitatively assess the energy-water interlinkages within the Nexus assessment of the Drina River Basin. By providing an overview of general concepts, tools used and hands-on experience on model building, the workshop opened the box of the modelling analysis to the audience and laid the ground for local uptake of the model infrastructure.
