CSEA Attends Stakeholder Roundtable on Strengthening Fiscal Sustainability and Climate Action

BudgIT, in collaboration with the Partnership for Agile Governance and Climate Engagement (PACE), hosted a Civil Society Organisation (CSO) Workshop and Stakeholder Engagement under the PACE project titled “Fiscal Sustainability and Stakeholder Action for Climate Finance.” The event was held on  February 25, 2026, at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja, Nigeria.
The Centre for the Study of the Economies of Africa (CSEA) was represented by Munachiso Victor Ifechukwu, Researcher. The workshop convened civil society organisations, researchers, and climate advocates to examine climate-related line items within the federal budget. 
Discussions focused on restoring a unified federal budget calendar, improving budget performance and transparency, and strengthening access to and accountability in climate finance. While initial conversations centered on climate-related allocations, deliberations quickly shifted to the implementation challenges surrounding climate projects and financing. The session concluded with a strong call to action, urging policymakers to prioritize effective implementation of climate financing initiatives.
