Description
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is investing $3 million to build the capacity of the South African Government to refine and implement a Low Emission Development Strategy. The program will build on an ongoing South African government process that has identified long-term climate change mitigation scenarios across a variety of sectors driving economic growth in South Africa. USAID will provide technical assistance and capacity building to support a new national climate strategy and an emerging green economy approach focused on generating new employment while demonstrating leadership for climate-friendly economic growth.
