Strengthening Environmental Governance Through Collaboration

Earlier this May, PROTEGO proudly played a key role in advancing environmental governance in Nigeria by supporting the pivotal technical review and validation workshop for the Cross River State Draft Environment Policy. More than just a sponsor, PROTEGO actively contributed to the success of the validation process by offering targeted technical recommendations, drawing on our expertise to strengthen the policy framework and ensure it aligns with both state priorities and international best practices. Our contributions were instrumental in shaping a more robust, actionable, and inclusive policy that reflects the voices and insights of key stakeholders across the state. We are delighted to share that the policy has now been officially validated, marking a significant milestone in Cross River State’s efforts to advance sustainable environmental management. This collaborative achievement highlights PROTEGO’s continued commitment to supporting evidence-based policymaking and fostering partnerships that lead to meaningful environmental and social impact.
