Energy Access Watch: The AfDB launched Mission 300’s MapAfrica tracker to monitor electricity projects across Africa, including Niger. Regional Water Deal: EU and Germany-backed Lake Chad Water Management (LACHAWAMA) was launched to improve shared water governance and climate resilience across the basin.
