Come with us to Nigeria where we will be delving into the intricacies of policy coherence in one of Africa’s most dynamic economies. With a population of over 200 million people Nigeria is Africa’s most populous country, home to diverse range of ethnic groups, culture and languages. As Nigeria’s population grows the country is contending with numerous sustainable development challenges.
