She said, “as global climate challenges intensify, Osun State is poised to take decisive steps toward becoming a leader in climate action and sustainability. In an effort to build a resilient future, we are embarking on a comprehensive initiative focused on the collection, reporting, and tracking of critical climate data.
“This initiative will play a central role in the development of our state’s Climate Action Plan, a strategic framework that will guide our efforts to mitigate the impacts of climate change while fostering sustainable growth.
“Our initiative will be guided by a structured reporting template, ensuring that each sector contributes effectively to the state’s overall climate goals. This template will cover a range of critical areas, including an overview of ongoing climate actions, key activities and achievements, challenges encountered, data and metrics, stakeholder engagement, funding and resources, future plans, and actionable recommendations.

Through collaboration, innovation, and a steadfast commitment to our climate goals, we will ensure that our state remains a thriving and resilient community for generations to come.”
