European Union pledges €59 million under WASOP to support sustainable ocean governance in West Africa
The European Union has pledged €59 million to support West Africa’s efforts to protect its oceans, strengthen marine governance and promote sustainable use of coastal resources.
A major component of the programme, with a budget of €17 million and implemented by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), is dedicated to protecting and restoring marine and coastal ecosystems.
