CABRI joined the African Development Bank and the World Health Organisation (Africa region) in hosting a capacity-building workshop for senior officials from ministries of finance, health, education and civil society organizations.

ECOWAS member countries that attended the workshop were: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo.

  • Identified areas of in-depth capacity building and continued learning on improving value for money
