Part of 2. Questions to the Minister for International Relations and Welsh Language – in the Senedd at 2:51 pm on 3 April 2019.
Well, it's clear that the most successful strategies have been ones where actually it is about community to community, and this is a great example where actually people are just getting on with it, I think. PONT is a great example of that; some of the work that's done in Lesotho really demonstrates how building those communities and people-to-people relationships really gives a depth to the Wales for Africa programme.
One of the things that we need to do is to just have much greater clarity on who is doing what, where, so I've already commissioned a piece of work to see how we map that, so that we're all aware of what's going on before we start. You're absolutely right—resources are always going to be an issue here, but what's clear is, with the very small resources we are giving to this, they are having a major impact. But we can also be creative in some of the other ways that we help. So, the Minister for Environment, Energy and Rural Affairs, for example, recently donated a fisheries protection vessel to the Government of Liberia. It's a real issue there—how do people protect their fishing stocks—and I think that was a great contribution we can give. It wasn't money, but it was a boat, and we did that with the World Bank and with other organisations. I think we can be really proud of some of the work we're doing.
