The project, conducted for the Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre, consists in the stakeholders-driven development of regional standard operating procedures (SOPs) to guide and coordinate national water utilities in the development and management of water infrastructure that is resilient to climate change and natural disasters. This involves the training of both water utilities staff and wider communities in SOPs and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) through a train-the-trainer scheme.

An ex-post country level evaluation assignment on the European Union's co-operation strategy with Bolivia and its implementation during the period of 2014 to 2020 to identify key lessons and recommendations in order to improve the current and future European Union's strategies, programmes and interventions on cooperation in Bolivia.
The following focal sectors were selected for intervention in Bolivia in the current Multiannual Indicative Programme (MIP), and are to be evaluated under this assignment: 1) justice reform and the fight against corruption 2) the fight against illicit drugs and control of surplus coca cultivation, and 3) water, sanitation and natural resources management.

In the context of Axis 1 of the Adapt'Action Facility set up by Agence Française de Développement (AFD) to participate in the operationalisation of the Paris Climate Agreement and the implementation of the adaptation dimensions of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), Niger is engaged in the implementation of a national monitoring and evaluation system of the implementation of the adaptation component of the NDC in Niger.
This tool, on the one hand, will form part of the national steering of the NDC implementation and will effectively respond to Niger's accountability in the context of the implementation of the Paris Agreement. In the long term, this tool could also contribute to the operationalisation of the future Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) system that will be established to meet the accountability requirements of climate change mitigation. The mandate aims to: (i) support the Nigerien authorities in carrying out an inventory of existing monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, (ii) on the basis of the revised NDC and existing mechanisms, define in a participatory and consensual manner of the monitoring framework and the NDC monitoring indicators, and (iii) Develop a national tool for collecting and monitoring indicators to be informed by stakeholders at the cross-cutting and sectoral levels and support the MELCD in capacity building on the national monitoring and evaluation system.

SOFRECO provided expertise for the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) and Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) for the construction of the Ruzizi III 147 MW hydropower plant, the third hydroelectric development on the Ruzizi River involving Rwanda, DR Congo and Burundi. The team of experts assessed and predicted potential adverse social and environmental impacts of the project, and developed suitable mitigation measures in consultation with stakeholders, in particular with Persons Affected by the Project (PAPs).

Drafting of a Strategic Environmental and Social Assessment (SESA) of the mining sector. The objective of the assessment is to systematically analyse the environmental and social risks associated with all initiatives (exploration, sectorial organisation, investment, planning, techniques, operations, economics, revenue management, etc.) of the mining sector at the country level and to propose general measures for guaranteeing the sector’s sustainability.
