In accordance with the UNFCCC decision to adopt national adaptation plans (NAP) on its 17th session, Burkina Faso prepared a NAP on the following sectors: agriculture, animal production, environment, and natural resources, meteorology, energy, health, infrastructure and housing, women’s associations, and civil society organizations. The written input from the Global Water Partnership West Africa and the Burkina National Water Partnership was taken into account for water security.
In this project, and to support the implementation of the NAP, the government through the Executive Secretariat of the National Designated Authority (NDA) and GGGI have mobilized a preparation and support program financed by the Green Climate Fund (GCF). The program aims to support the integration of adaptation into subnational planning, strengthening institutional frameworks, and developing a funding strategy and concept notes for adaptation projects. It will address one of the main gaps identified related to the weakness of the governance and institutional coordination of the NAP, at national and local level.
