Studies have been undertaken within four pilot countries (Mali, Senegal, Sudan and Ethiopia), to understand how the GGW fits within national level architecture and to carry out a thorough stakeholder and engagement review and an analysis of regional policy coherence. Policy windows are also being mapped to understand GGW links to the climate agenda and identify any opportunities for engagement and alignment. The detailed study is rooted in linking emerging bottlenecks with research and practice offerings across the region.
