The Strategic Roadmap aims to present a timebound plan to implement solutions that will improve plastic
management in Accra and its surroundings at all the stages of the plastic chain (importation, production,
manufacturing, distribution, consumption, collection and recycling) and for all the different types of
stakeholders (international, institutional, private, informal and civil society).

This newsletter describes all the activities carried out by the  West African Regional Coastal Observatory (WARCO) during this period. 

This document is based on findings from the first phase of the Invest in Africa Côte d'Ivoire Manufacturing project involving desk review and one on one interviews with key stakeholders In the next phase, the team will move from one on one interviews to a series of smaller group workshops to verify the information gathered and to disseminate new information among the industry The preliminary results presented in this report serve as input for the focus groups and the EDW.

La finalité du projet est une meilleure protection de la santé humaine et de l'environnement contre les effets néfastes des déchets plastiques, en réduisant les quantités de déchets plastiques finissant dans l'environnement au Cap-Vert, au Sénégal et plus globalement dans les pays francophones d'Afrique de l'Ouest (le Bénin, le Burkina Faso, le Tchad, la Côte d'Ivoire, la Guinée, la Guinée-Bissau, le Mali, la Mauritanie, le Niger et le Togo).

This report presents a comprehensive overview and analysis of the prevailing institutional and regulatory framework for plastics management in Ghana, highlighting both the strengths and challenges identified.

This document assesses plastics circularity in Nigeria. Nigeria faces a severe plastic pollution problem, as the nation does not have adequately designed waste disposal channels. Lagos alone generates 8400 metric tons of waste daily and more than 11% of the waste generated consists of plastics.

Le projet de protection côtière de l’île de Gorée revêt deux composantes : l’aménagement d’une digue de protection (bordière) en enrochements et un volet d’aménagements paysagers. Le système de protection retenue consiste en l’aménagement d’une digue de protection (bordière) en enrochements à crête élargie et abaissée, arasée à la cote + 3,1 m CM soit une revanche considérée de la crête, par rapport au niveau Extrême (= + 2,8 m CM), de seulement 0,3 m.

Le WACA ResIP, financé par la Banque Mondiale, d’une durée de 5 ans (2018-2023), ambitionne d’améliorer la gestion des risques naturels et anthropiques communs, en intégrant les changements climatiques, affectant les communautés et les zones côtières de la région d’Afrique de l’Ouest.

Many African countries would also benefit from accessing the World Bank’s full range of finance instruments, which spans grant financing, debt, and equity financing. Technical assistance or grant financing is often required to undertake the analytics and diagnostics needed to identify policy improvements.
