Active signal

Côte d’Ivoire has ratified and launched US$24.07 million in additional financing for its component of the Integrated Programme for Development and Adaptation to Climate Change in the Niger Basin (PIDACC/BN). An official ministry report now places the existing programme above 80% physical execution and reports more than FCFA 10 billion disbursed from its initial FCFA 13 billion envelope. That baseline does not establish disbursement of the additional package. The next public tests are the dated infrastructure deliveries promised for October to December 2026 and an attributable cash, procurement and output trail for the new financing.

Assessment stages

Findings published in revision 1.1

Stage 1 · Verified

Signal

The Ivorian component of PIDACC/BN has moved from an existing resilience programme into an additional-financing phase covering climate adaptation, landscape restoration and natural-resource management in eight regions.

Stage 2 · Verified

Trigger

Côte d’Ivoire signed the financing agreements on 13 March, launched the additional financing on 16 September and recorded ratification of the loan and grant in the Council of Ministers on 28 September 2026.

Stage 3 · Mapped

Authority

The Ministry of Water and Forests and the PIDACC/BN National Coordination Unit lead national implementation. Regional monitoring committees connect prefects, regional councils, decentralised technical services, financial control and programme accounting. The Niger Basin Authority coordinates the regional component.

Stage 4 · Verified

Commitment

The launched package totals US$24.07 million: an African Development Fund loan of US$6.87 million, a Forest Investment Programme loan of US$12.6 million and grant of US$1.9 million, plus a US$2.7 million Ivorian counterpart contribution.

Stage 5 · Verified

Execution

For the initial programme envelope, the ministry reports more than FCFA 10 billion disbursed and physical execution above 80%, while an equipment handover and field supervision are also documented. Completion of the dated infrastructure commitments, transaction-level support and outputs attributable to the additional package remain open.

Stage 6 · Not assessable at this stage

Outcome

Not yet. Existing programme outputs form a baseline, but the additional-financing phase requires separate evidence of hectares restored, water and livelihood assets delivered, beneficiaries reached and resilience outcomes by the end of 2027.
