As part of the IGE capacity-building program, the Environment and Climate Research Center (ECRC) (EfD-Ethiopia) organized a second workshop on August 4, 2020. The objective of the workshop was to review and collect inputs on the draft National Policy Review (NPR) document prepared by the program. The workshop aimed to facilitate discussion between the IGE fellows and IGE teams on the draft NPR with a couching from the IGE support team. IGE fellows and the associated IGE teams from the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Water and Energy, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Transport and Logistics, and Environmental Protection Authority have attended the workshop. The group’s discussion mainly focused on the identified existing and planned policy instruments related to fossil fuel, plastic pollution, and forest loss. Following their active discussion, the participants provided constructive comments and shared relevant documents to improve the draft NPR document.
