The West African Monetary Agency (WAMA), in partnership with the African Development Bank (AfDB), implemented a Technical Assistance project to harmonize payment systems across ECOWAS. In support of this effort, a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) was established and trained through a 3-day capacity-building workshop held from 22 to 24 April 2026 in Freetown, Sierra Leone. The training aimed at strengthening the PIU’s ability to manage AfDB-funded projects by focusing on procurement procedures, disbursement processes, and financial management requirements.
