DevPact supported a regional research and development institution in Botswana to mobilise climate finance resources
The objective of this assignment was to assist SADC member states and the Centre for Coordination of Agricultural Research and Development for Southern Africa (CCARDESA) in identifying potential funding partners and supporting stakeholder engagement to mobilise resources for climate-smart agriculture investment proposals at national, regional, and global level from different climate financing sources (national, bilateral, multilateral, regional funds). The assignment also sought to assist CCARDESA to present relevant information on funding opportunities through its information, communication, and knowledge management system and catalyse responsive action by regional stakeholders towards developing additional bankable proposals with a higher chance of being funded. Led by Greencroft Economics, DevPact supported the assessment of potential sources of climate finance for climate smart agriculture (CSA) in the SADC region, delivered training workshops to CCARDESA staff and supported CSA concept note and proposal development.
