A few days ago, Côte d'Ivoire and the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) officially launched a new Cooperation Framework covering the period 2026-2028. This renewed partnership is part of a context where the country adopted, in November 2025, its third generation Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC 3.0), setting ambitious objectives for 2035 (reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 33.07%, increasing renewable energies to 46% of the energy mix and restoring 1.5 million hectares of forests). The implementation of these commitments requires the mobilization of resources estimated at more than 62 billion US dollars by 2030.

The new framework with the GGGI responds precisely to this financing challenge. It provides for the development of high-impact projects likely to attract international climate financing, support for green investments from the private sector, strengthening resilience mechanisms in the face of climate change and promoting technological and institutional innovation. The GGGI country representative, Olola Vieyra, revealed the operational contours of this system during the ceremony. This partnership is also part of the dynamic driven by the UN-Côte d'Ivoire Cooperation Framework 2026-2030, launched in April 2026, which mobilizes more than a billion dollars to support the country's environmental resilience and sustainable governance.

Note that Côte d'Ivoire thus displays rare strategic coherence in West Africa, by aligning its international cooperation tools with a clear, measurable and funded climate roadmap (proof that the ecological transition is no longer a distant horizon, but a work in progress).
