Networking & Collaboration

Technologies are vital to building climate-resilient, low-carbon societies. Many essential technologies already exist — the challenge is to get them deployed where they are needed, and to build the enabling environments to support technology innovation, adaptation and scale-up. An overwhelming number of developing countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement indicate a requirement for technology support and capacity building in order to achieve their commitments. To meet this need, the CTCN serves as a demand-driven and trusted partner, matching developing countriy needs for climate change-related equipment, methods, capacity development and policy advice with the world-class expertise of its Network and our collaborators. 

Green Habitat Initiative

Green Habitat Initiative (GHI) is a non-profit organization committed to advancing sustainability in cities and communities in Nigeria. GHI has worked across Nigeria towards the achievement of SDGs 6 (Clean Water & Sanitation), 11(sustainable cities and communities), and 13 (climate Action). Our work has impacted more than 80,000 Nigerians, supporting them to access clean water, decent environmental conditions, and improved socio-economic livelihoods. GHI is the first local NGO in Nigeria to partner with USAID in the WASH sector, winning a $2 million grant to implement a WASH program in some of the most deprived areas of Nigeria.
