Investment is critical to deliver the infrastructure that countries need for their citizens to thrive. But to obtain this investment, countries must be clear on what financial support they need. Guinea-Bissau is a country that has outlined where exactly it requires financial support to meet its infrastructure needs.
It’s done so by setting out its long-term development objectives. Principle 6 of the Enabling Better Infrastructure 12 guiding principles recognizes that ‘an infrastructure strategy needs to cover all aspects of implementation’. This includes setting up long-term funding and financing arrangements to help address infrastructure gaps.
