dc.description	Realizing national Green Economies will be a key cornerstone of UNEP’s work over the coming year as countries, companies and communities wrestle with the multiple challenges but also multiple opportunities presented in the first decade of the twentieth century. More than two dozen governments have requested assistance and down-to-earth advice on how best to tailor a transition to a low carbon, resource efficient economy within national development strategies and economic planning. A Green Economy Initiative for Africa has been in preparation. Following the Third African Ministerial Conference on Financing for Development in Rwanda last May, a pilot project, involving six countries including Kenya, Rwanda and Senegal, will be launched shortly.
