Locations

Lesotho

Lesotho’s development agenda includes upgrading essential infrastructure - such as transport links, water supply and energy systems - to support economic integration with South Africa and regional markets. Participating in Southern African regional projects helps improve connectivity, but limited domestic resources and challenging terrain mean that external financing and improved governance are important for realising investment in critical infrastructure that supports inclusive growth and provokes private sector participation.
