The project aims at empowering African policy makers, research & academia, investors and citizens with the necessary tools and know-how to increase clean energy generation and sustainable use of resources while reducing inequalities and cultural/socio-economic gaps.

 

ONEPlanET will undertake a participatory approach – in three African case studies: Songwe (Malawi/Tanzania), Inkomati-Usuthu area (South Africa) and Niger (Nigeria) river basins – to co-design and test a Toolkit, built upon existing WEF Nexus models and methodologies, that allows to simulate scenarios optimising existing resources with the most appropriate policies considering social, climate, economic and biophysical constraints.

 

In addition, a Knowledge Hub including a set of capacity building materials and knowledge exchange activities will also be developed.

Through its WEF Nexus models, ONEPlanET aims at becoming the Toolkit supporting African decision-makers in the energy field in their day-to-day work.

The project is being coordinated by RINA Consulting, Italy and brings together 11 multidisciplinary partners from 9 different countries in Europe and Africa, with the intention to connect the knowledge, speed up the implementation of the WEF Nexus modelling approach and capitalise the Project’s outputs.
