NO This quarterly report outlines a multi-country initiative funded by the European Union to facilitate sustainable development through the transition toward an inclusive green economy across six African nations. The programme supports micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises in priority sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, and integrated waste management. Key activities involve enhancing resource productivity, implementing industrial symbiosis training, and improving material and water efficiency. Strategic methods include providing capacity enhancement for eco-entrepreneurship and establishing partnerships through international forums and coordination meetings. General findings highlight progress in product certification, the replication of successful business models, and the recognition of outstanding social and environmental enterprises. These efforts aim to drive changes in production and consumption modes while integrating cross-cutting themes like energy efficiency and sustainable trade.
