10. CONCLUSION
Taking into account the need to start from the WP1 for
sustainability and the opportunities :
- the implementation of MOU with ECOWAS/WRCC, and
VBA with GWP/WA has been strenghtenned with
tangible collaboration actions with strong perspectives
for follow-up.
- the CWPs in Burkina Faso and Ghana gain more
credibility with sound input in their collaboration with
government bodies and other Partners.
However, at regional level, the budget for the WP8
appeared to be too small for linkages with the
regional and country implementation processes.
