Integrating and sustainably transforming West Africa

by guaranteeing equitable access to clean energy.

BOAD believes in tomorrow, and we are building it today!

For over 50 years, we have been working with WAEMU countries to turn ambitions into reality. In 2023, we have chosen to look further ahead to the WADB of the next 50 years, and to the West Africa we want for future generations by 2073.

What we envisage is not a utopia. Agricultural drones are already in use, the first modern trains are running, and our region’s talented individuals are assembling electric cars. It’s not tomorrow, it’s now!

At BOAD, we believe that technological progress and cultural roots can go hand in hand. We believe that the future can be built by preserving the essence of who we are. That’s why we finance innovation, sustainability and inclusion: so that West Africa in 2075 will be not only more advanced, but also fairer, more humane and more equitable.

Welcome to the Africa we have decided to build. Welcome to our LAND

Lomé Regional Collaboration Center

The Lomé Regional Collaboration Center (CRC-Lomé) is the fruit of harmonious collaboration between the UNFCCC Secretariat and BOAD. Created in 2013, it is the first of the 6 CRCs that exist today and covers 26 countries in French-speaking West and Central Africa. Initially set up to promote the opportunities and benefits offered by the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) under the Kyoto Protocol, CRC-Lomé has expanded its scope of intervention.
