EfD -Ethiopia, ECRC, organized a training-of-trainers workshop on March 1, 2022. The workshop was part of the Inclusive Green Economy program (IGE), a capacity development program for civil servants in Eastern Africa.
The purpose of the workshop was to share knowledge between the 2021 participants in the program, called IGE fellows, the 2022 IGE fellows, and other civil servants from different government organizations.
The 2021 IGE fellows shared their experiences and talked about relevant IGE strategies and policy instruments to use in the country in different sectors including energy, forest, agriculture, transport, and industry. In addition, a study was presented, Determining what needs to be valued, why and for whom, as an example of IGE implementation. Finally, the participants discussed challenges in their respective sectors and proposed different mechanisms to better implement the IGE in the future.
