Africa’s leaders have placed water and sanitation at the heart of the continent’s development agenda, with a commitment to mobilise at least USD 30 billion annually for climate-resilient water security and WASH services by 2030. The AIP-PIDA Water Investment Scorecard, endorsed to strengthen accountability and engagement with investors, has become a primary instrument to track progress and guide action.
The AFCIA Mali project, funded by the Adaptation Fund under the Adaptation Fund Climate Innovation Accelerator (AFCIA) program, represents a major step forward in climate risk management in Mali. Implemented by UNEP through the CTCN, with technical assistance from GWP-WA and carried out by AEDD, Mali Météo, and DNH, it runs from March 2024 to December 2025 with a budget of approximately USD 200,000.
