NSE and AGESI Collaborate for Climate-Resilient Engineering
The Nigerian Society of Engineers (NSE), Ibeju-Lekki Branch, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Africa Green Economy and Sustainability Institute (AGESI) on October 14, 2026, in Lagos. This partnership aims to strengthen climate-resilient engineering and infrastructure development in Nigeria.
It establishes a framework for training engineers, planners, regulators, and infrastructure operators to tackle flooding, climate-related risks, and infrastructure vulnerability. The collaboration is anchored in the Catchment Resilience Engineering Certification (CREC) programme, which has been adopted as a professional development pathway for engineers in Lagos State and Nigeria.
Engr. Olufemi Dare, Chairman of NSE Ibeju-Lekki Branch, stated that the partnership would provide engineers with tools and frameworks to address environmental challenges. The agreement includes initiatives such as CREC masterclasses, resilience maps, and community adaptation kits, aiming to enhance engineers' skills in climate-resilient infrastructure design and governance.
