The Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations in collaboration with the Pan African Agency of the Great Green Wall have mapped out a 10-year investment plan in Nigeria and five other West and Central Africa Sahelian countries namely: Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Niger and Senegal.
These were part of the deliberations at a 2-day national stakeholders’ workshop on the formulation process of Component 3 on, “Institutional Strengthening of PAGGW and GGW National Structures Through the Implementation of Climate Action initiatives and Dissemination of Successful Restoration Experiences”, for Scaling-up of Africa’s Great Green Wall , organised by the National Agency for the Great Green Wall in Abuja over the weekend.
Also speaking, the director-general of NAGGW, Dr Bukar Hassan maintained that combating desertification is possible and can be done with minimal resources, adding that the PAGGW initiative was drawn from the successes of the Action Against Desertification project in Nigeria.
