Last update: 2 hours ago

Electricity & Regional Trade: The World Bank says its West Africa Regional Power Integration and Electricity Access Programme has expanded electricity access to over 3 million people, built more than 4,000 km of transmission lines linking 15 countries, and is preparing a regional electricity market to cut costs and improve reliability. Climate Finance for Guinea-Bissau: The GEF approved a new LDCF/SCCF work programme for vulnerable countries, including Guinea-Bissau, with $67m in new funding and nearly $218m in co-financing aimed at flood/coastal risk reduction, food and water security, disaster preparedness, and resilient livelihoods. Agriculture & Rice Imports: AfDB urged West Africa to move from rice plans to delivery, warning a $3.5bn annual import bill drains foreign reserves; it highlighted the $680m REWARD programme and early operations including in Guinea-Bissau. Humanitarian Support: Qatar Red Crescent’s Eid al-Adha campaign reached 247,344 beneficiaries across Qatar and 13 countries, including Guinea-Bissau, delivering sacrificial meat and support via local partners. Workers’ Rights Watchlist: The 2026 Global Rights Index flags Guinea-Bissau on its watchlist for rising violations affecting workers and union rights.
