GENERAL INFORMATION

With financial support from the Gates Foundation, GGGI is implementing the project "Promoting Citywide Inclusive Sanitation through Climate Resilience in West Africa" ??in Senegal, Burkina Faso, and Côte d'Ivoire. This investment is a second phase, following a pilot investment in Nepal and Senegal, which aimed to understand GGGI's potential to support the development of policies, planning, and investments that included sanitation in the climate resilience and green growth agenda.

This second phase, in line with the Government's direction, therefore, represents a continuation of efforts to better integrate sanitation into climate policies through the upcoming revision of the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). Making the sanitation sector attractive for climate finance remains a challenge, and this must be achieved through more accurate emissions estimates and a clear implementation plan.

PROJECT BACKGROUND

The project aims to achieve the following results:

• Outcome 1: Enhanced understanding of climate-resilience opportunities in the sanitation sector in the region by strengthening the platform for sharing and knowledge approach to further climate- sanitation nexus narrative
• Outcome 2: Mainstreamed sanitation into national/local strategy, MRV system and updated NDCs
• Outcome 3: Disseminated innovative and climate-friendly sanitation technologies suitable for local markets in the target countries.

More specifically for Senegal, the project will focus on supporting the government in reviewing the sanitation component of the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) due in 2025, to ensure that it is appropriately reflected, with clear mitigation and adaptation measures outlined (Outcome 2). The work will include
