the Central West Gulf of Guinea (FCWC) has partnered with the International Union for Conservation of
Nature and its resources (IUCN) to secure funding from the World Bank’s Global Environment Facility
(GEF) for the achievement of the project “Utilization of marine spatial planning in the Gulf of Guinea
for the implementation of payment for ecosystem services and nature-based coastal solutions.”
This project, scheduled to run for a duration of three (3) years from 2024 to 2026, aims to strengthen
