SWA Africa Finance Ministers' Meeting 2023

This virtual meeting is open to the public and will focus on how finance ministers, in collaboration with other governments and development partners, can transform access to water and sanitation in their countries and generate economic and social benefits. 

The meeting will also look at ongoing processes, such as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Commission on the Economics of Water and the work of the African Union's Africa Investment Programme, to discuss how Africa can reach the additional $30 billion needed to meet the water and sanitation SDG targets. It will also reflect on the work around the recently launched Heads of State Initiatives.

Participants will also be presented with examples of countries that have benefited from prioritizing water and sanitation to achieve their development and climate goals. 

The 90-minute virtual meeting will be open to the public, and will offer interpretation in English, French and Portuguese. The event starts at 14:00 CAT/12:00 noon GMT.
