The plan comes as part of a new document, The Africa Strategy of the Netherlands 2023-2032, which prioritises collaboration with eight “combination countries”, as they are described in a policy document for foreign trade and development cooperation (BHOS).
In the eight selected countries – Ivory Coast, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria, Senegal and South Africa – the Netherlands is setting up long-term “combitracks” in sectors and subsectors where “feasible, affordable and high-impact Dutch solutions can contribute on a large scale to the green and digital transitions”.
In the document, the Netherlands flags up the “major opportunities” presented by close cooperation between Europe and Africa, including projects such as a new plant to produce green ammonia and hydrogen from clean energy sources in Morocco, which was funded via a loan from Invest International.
