NDA Strengthening and Country Programming support for Angola through AfDB

The Angolan NDA, in collaboration with the Delivery Partner (DP), the African Development Bank (AfDB), seeks this GCF Readiness Support as country-driven response to climate change challenges outlined under Section 2 of this proposal. The primary purpose of this project is to support the NDA in executing the activities identified in this proposal. The NDA intends to invest the requested Readiness resources into strengthening Angola’s national capacity for leading and coordinating the country’s national-level responses to climate change in general, and GCF-related climate actions in particular. To this end, priority will be given to those critical gaps and shortcomings that impede the NDA’s ability to address the impacts of climate change effectively. The NDA intends to spend a balk of the required Readiness resources on establishing a baseline by taking stock ongoing efforts (by NDA itself as well as other players – both governmental and non-governmental), reviewing and inventorying climate change data and information on Angola that is currently available, and undertaking an inventory of various stakeholders as well as assessing their respective strengths, weaknesses as well as opportunities they present. The NDA is of the opinion that undertaking such an exercise, as a first step, will present it with an informed slate to begin with. A key objective of this application, therefore, is to support the NDA in filling such gaps and addressing such shortcomings identified through the said baseline-setting exercise.
