Since 2021, Germany has committed €294.3 million (CFA193 billion) to support various reforms and investments in Togo. This funding is part of the G20’s Compact With Africa initiative, aimed at enhancing the business climate, vocational training, agro-industrial transformation, agricultural value chains, decentralization, and regional development.
This announcement was made during the Intergovernmental Consultations on Development Cooperation, which took place in Lomé from January 27 to 30, 2025. These consultations are intended to prepare for bilateral negotiations scheduled for late 2025 in Berlin.
A Sustainable Financial Commitment Through 2027
In 2024, Germany earmarked €15 million (CFA9.8 billion) for initiatives related to fiber optics and the digitization of municipal offices. Additionally, €11 million (CFA7.2 billion) was allocated to enhance resilience in northern Togo, which includes funding for school canteens.
The recent meeting assessed ongoing projects and established future priorities. In total, Germany has pledged €530.91 million (CFA347.75 billion) for projects extending through 2027, solidifying its position as one of Togo’s key development partners.
