Gender Equality Index in sustainable-energy SMEs, WOCEWA project
CEREEC / ECREEE, IDRC, 12 ECOWAS countries
Measuring and accelerating the climate and energy transition
Data, indices and evaluations to steer climate finance and sustainable-energy policy across ECOWAS.
The sector
A fast-growing sector held back by a data gap
Climate and sustainable energy attract a growing share of development finance, yet suffer from a shortage of reliable data to measure risk, vulnerability, inclusion and impact.
CRAD produces this evidence: indices, MRV, mapping and costed action plans, as on the regional WOCEWA project delivered for CEREEC/ECREEE across 12 ECOWAS countries.
