Enugu State Climate Policy and Action Plan (ESCAP)

The Enugu State Climate Policy and Action Plan (ESCAP) is a groundbreaking initiative, poised to become the first science-based climate policy and action plan in Nigeria. We are super close to securing the necessary funding to enable the government to design and implement this comprehensive plan. ESCAP will serve as a strategic roadmap, detailing all governmental actions related to climate change and sustainable development. This policy will not only guide the state’s response to climate change but also ensure that all subsequent initiatives are aligned with and contribute to the overarching goals of sustainability and resilience. By integrating scientific insights and best practices, ESCAP aims to catalyze significant progress in mitigating climate risks and fostering sustainable development, setting a precedent for other regions in Nigeria and beyond.
