NGO APIL is the operational partner of the Benkadi project in the North-Central region

For him, it will be a question of orienting the participants on the implementation process and the follow-up of the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), through communications on the BENKADI project, the national MRV system, NDC, NAP, and climate finance.

In his opening speech, the High Commissioner of the Sanmatenga province, Abraham Yiyé Somdo, invited participants to take ownership of the modules that will be taught to them, in order to be able to fully play their part in the implementation of the Benkadi project in the Centre-North. “I urge you to appropriate the skills that will be provided by professionals, in order to play your role in the implementation of the Benkadi project, which focuses on capacity building of stakeholders so that they can play their role in influencing public policies on the environment and climate,” said Abraham Yiye Somdo.

During the 24 hours of training, these 25 people are provided with tools on climate policies and the MRV system with experienced resource persons in environment and climate. The training started with a presentation of the NGO APIL, operational partner of the Benkadi project in the North-Central region, with a focus on the different axes of the project.

The training took place mainly in plenary followed by exchanges through a question and answer session. The Benkadi program, which means “working together in the same direction”, initiated by SPONG and its partners gathered in a consortium in four countries, aims to help Burkina Faso meet the challenge of inclusive governance of policies, programs, climate change practices, sustainable and inclusive management of the environment in the mining sector, including gold mining.
