The World Resource Institute (WRI) is an advocate and implementer of researching, designing, and carrying out practical solutions which improve people’s lives and ensure that nature can thrive. Since 2013, Denmark has provided core funding to the organization and has thus supported it’s aims. WRI’s 2023-2027 strategic plan will also receive Danish funding, however with an earmark. The chosen thematic areas for the plan will follow Danish development priority areas.
PEM is engaged to provide aid for the preparation and program formulation of the Danish support to the WRI strategic plan 2023-2027. The consultancy team under the lead of PEM-partner Stephanie Robert Oksen prepared several documents, including the project document for Denmark’s support to the plan, had elaborate discussions Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark, and WRI as well as the key donor partners. The team also visited Ethiopia and Kenya to gain in-depth insights and discuss the program with WRI and relevant embassies.
