GWP_SEA WAY Programme is planned from 17 October to 2 December 2022. We are calling applications from eligible youth (18-35 years old) from the region to participate to the online training.
The goal of the AIP WACDEP-G programme is to ensure that the preparation, development, design, governance, and management of ongoing and new climate resilient water infrastructure investments, institutions, and job creation interventions strategically advance gender equality.
Contributing to a major United Nations environmental meeting convened in Stockholm, Sweden, GWP and partners are convening a side event to champion ‘Water Alignment that enables water aligned finance, strategy, and action.’
Burkina Faso, a Sahelian country with essentially rain-fed water resources, is experiencing a depletion of its water resources at a time when the demand for water for households and development needs is increasing. This has a negative impact on the quality of available resources, particularly due to pollution of various origins.
Africa is particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change due to a number of interlinked challenges, including land degradation, poverty, and extreme weather events. The continent also has a low adaptive capacity, in part due to financial and technical constrains, and a heavy reliance on rain-fed agriculture.
