EPJSLP strengthens planning for 2027/2028 implementation season
By Gloria Siwisha
Budget planning is a critical component of environmental projects such as the Eastern Province Jurisdictional Sustainable Landscape Programme (EPJSLP), as it ensures that programme objectives are aligned with available financial resources and that funds are allocated efficiently to achieve desired results.
In the pictures, EPJSLP District Project Officer responsible for Chipangali and Chipata districts, Ms.Mwila Ng’ambi, leads officials from the Zambia Meteorological Department, Forestry Department, and Ministry of Agriculture from Chipangali, Chipata, and Kasenengwa districts into a review and planning meeting at her office in Chipata.
The meeting focused on reviewing progress and planning activities for district-level implementation during the 2027/2028 agriculture season.
The EPJSLP is a climate action and rural development initiative implemented by the Ministry of Green Economy and Environment, with support from the World Bank.
The programme development objective is to generate payments to the programme entity for measured, reported and verified emission reductions (ERS) and to distribute the payments according to an agreed Benefit Sharing Plan (BSP).
The programme targets the generation of approximately 20 million tonnes of verified emission reductions by 2030, through interventions aimed at reducing deforestation and forest degradation while promoting sustainable land-use practices..
