Africa Circular provided technical assistance to the Indian Ocean Commission for a regional circular economy action plan and a financing mechanism for blue and circular economy priorities. The client listed in the project reference is the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA).
The assignment examined the regional state of circular economy development, barriers and opportunities. It covered priority sector actions, regional cooperation and arrangements for an expert working group.
The financing component addressed how island-specific blue and circular economy priorities could be supported. It concerned the design of a mechanism, rather than a claim that funding had already been mobilised or disbursed.
