Agency To Partner C’ River Ministry For Effective Projects Implementation
The Mainyoito Pastoralist Integrated Development Organisation (MPIDO), has sued for synergy with the Cross River State Ministry of Climate Change and Forestry for effective intervention of climate change and REDD+ related activities in forest bearing communities of the state.
MPIDO is an Africa regional grantee of the Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF) of the World Bank chosen through a competitive process to implement the FCPF project (global capacity building program for forest-dependent indigenous people).
The call for synergy was made when the Commissioner for Climate Change and Forestry received a team from MPIDO and the Program Coordinator, Wise Administration of Terrestrial Environment and Resource (WATER) to her office recently.
In an introductory statement, The knowledge management and communication Manager, MPIDO, Elijah Toirai intimated that the FCPF project WAS aimed at strengthening the knowledge of the targeted forest dependent indigenous people of REDD+ readiness at the national level and the knowledge exchange at the regional level in the African region.
Toirai informed that in order to select sub-gurantees, a call for proposal from African Indigenous People Organization (IPO) was made, a process which qualified WATER in Nigeria as one of the 5 IPOs in Africa, adding that one phase of the project was completed in July 2018 in Ekuri community and the neighbouring communities and a second phase began in January 2019.
