| description | West African countries are highly vulnerable to climate change yet receive limited climate financing from the existing global mechanisms. Although the Paris Agreement emphasizes inclusive and participatory approaches, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in West Africa face significant barriers in accessing major climate funds such as the Green Climate Fund (GCF). AICCRA supported a regional workshop to build the resource mobilization capacity of the members of the West Africa Regional Hub of the Independent Global Stocktake (iGST WA Hub), a network of over 500 climate-focused CSOs. The capacity building workshop specifically targeted the GCF, providing CSOs from 8 West African countries, including AICCRA countries, hands-on training to design bankable GCF concept notes. The workshop strategically included 4 experts from the National Designated Authorities (NDAs) and ministries of agriculture and environment from Benin and Burkina Faso, the targeted countries for the concept note development. Next steps include the finalization and submission of the multi-country GCF concept note, thereby creating a tangible pipeline for climate finance mobilization within the iGST WA Hub. Through this capacity building, AICCRA equipped the members of iGST WA Hub with skills enabling them to leverage existing climate finance for locally relevant adaptation and mitigation actions. |
