SPATIO-TEMPORAL ANALYSIS OF THE SGP-GEF-UNDP FUNDED PROJECTS IN NIGERIA (2009–2022): IMPACTS, TRENDS, AND STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONS
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the spatial and temporal patterns of projects funded by the Small Grants Programme (SGP) under the GEF and implemented by UNDP in Nigeria from 2009 to 2022. Methods employed include Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping, time-series analysis, and thematic categorization to examine project locations, themes, and their evolution over time. The results demonstrate regional disparities, shifts in environmental priorities, and development trajectories, revealing significant spatial and thematic trends. The final conclusion emphasizes that these insights can guide policymakers and stakeholders in optimizing future interventions to promote sustainable development tailored to Nigeria’s environmental and socio-economic contexts.
