Led by the African Union Commission in collaboration with AUDA-NEPAD and the Co-Chairs of the High-Level Panel; Senegal, Netherlands, Namibia, and Global Water Partnership Africa, the High-Level Panel’s Report outlines actionable pathways for countries to mobilise at least US$30 billion annually by 2030, for implementing the AIP and closing the existing water investment gap in Africa, which is estimated at US$ 11-19bn/year. The Report will inform the Africa Water Investment Action Plan that will be developed for launch during the 78th UN General Assembly in September 2023.
