<\/a>The African Development Bank (AfDB) is exploring ways of getting new climate financing for 14 African countries including Ghana from the year 2012.<\/p>\nThe bank is eyeing Norway and Korea for these financing.<\/p>\n
According to the AfDB, a delegation from the Nordic Development Fund (NDF) will visit the Bank in mid-January 2012 to present its new strategy and operational guidelines for accessing funding for climate mitigation and adaptation activities.<\/p>\n
The NDF can provide grants of up to $4 million for climate change project components covering technical assistance and capacity building activities as well as hard investments where appropriate.<\/p>\n
The AfDB said the NDF is available to 14 African countries: Ghana, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Rwanda, Senegal, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n
Eligible areas of work, the bank indicated include infrastructure and energy; natural resource management and climate change-related capacity building.<\/p>\n
The Bank will be receiving a visit from the Korea-based Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) in the first quarter of 2012 to discuss means of supporting regional member countries in developing their green growth strategies, said the lender.<\/p>\n
