Climate resilience must be mandatory in all public projects — Climate Minister tells Parliament
The Minister of State for Climate Change and Sustainability, Alhaji Baba Seidu Issifu, has called for climate considerations to become a mandatory component of all public infrastructure and development projects to strengthen Ghana’s resilience against climate change.
According to the Minister, ensuring that every public project has a climate component would not only support environmental sustainability but also create opportunities for Ghana to access climate financing and generate carbon credits.
Appearing before Parliament’s Assurance Committee on Thursday, July 9, Mr Issifu said climate resilience must be integrated into the planning, design and implementation stages of national development projects.
