@MalleFofana @gggi_hq .@MalleFofana also noted that:
📌 Private sector must play an important role in #ClimateAdaptation
📌 Blended & innovative finance solutions, such as #GreenBonds, Debt for Nature Swap & carbon transactions can offer countries an opportunity to bridge the climate finance gap (3/3)

Very impressed with the progress in the #Rwanda waste management project where @gggi_hq partnered with governments of Rwanda and #Luxemburg - treating waste as a resource - towards #CircularEconomy

[GGGI Rwanda @GGGI_Rwanda]

Director-General of @GGGI_HQ , Dr @FrankRijsberman shared his remarks virtually during the cocktail event for the Inauguration of the Nduba Waste Valorization Facilities in Rwanda as the @GGGI_Rwanda team showcased the project results & impact

#TonleSap isn't just a lake; it's 🇰🇭 tapestry woven with stories & sustenance. But human activity takes a toll. Together with the Min. of Environment, we are preparing long term & diverse environment initiatives. Insights from today meeting with NCSD will guide us to next stage.

[GGGI_Africa @GGGIAfrica]

Exciting discussions with the Swedish Export Credit Corporation (@SEK_export ) on climate #ResilientInfrastructure & strengthening partnership for #SustainableDevelopment in #Africa. Together, we can build a future where infrastructure meets the challenges of #ClimateChange.

[Frank Rijsberman @FrankRijsberman]

The President of Tajikistan, HE Emomali Rahmon, notes that #climatechange has already melted 60% of the glaciers that the #CentralAsia region depends on for its water supply - by now the #ClimateCrisis has already arrived and will inevitably impact all of us seriously.

[Frank Rijsberman @FrankRijsberman]

I am attending the Opening of the 3rd Dushanbe Water Conference by HE the President of #Tajikistan: water, but particularly sanitation, progress is lagging far behind #SDG targets - I have attended such events for about 40 years now - call to action sadly constant
