action_plan:

As the EU funding was ending and bridge funding provided by BW Global was only allowing to cover minimal operational costs such as essential staff costs and other running costs, such high-level event was not feasible. However, both BW Madagascar and Sri Lanka held high level forums in the course of the projects. They also held preliminary consultation workshops (not funded by the EU) in Q4 2024 with constituents and stakeholders to share learnings and gather input to inform the design of their respective new initiatives

2. Put the BW programme further on the map with an EU-funded high-level Sustainability Workshop in each country presenting the accomplishments as well as discussing the directions for the future with the tripartite constituents and the key development partners and donors. Involve high-level staff from these organisations in order to jointly explore the potential interest in and funding of the BW innovative approach (this should, among others, explicitly include the MTEFP, FMFP, AFD and CNIM in Madagascar and SDC, Japan and Canada in Sri Lanka). This would also be crucial for enhanced consultations for a follow-up phase. In order to sustain the interest and to enhance resource mobilisation, a schedule for regular follow-up meetings focusing on due diligence can also be discussed at this Workshop, for example continuing the breakfast meetings organised by BW Madagascar in 2022 on the garment sector.
