Transitioning Africa – COP28

Over the past decade, nations throughout Africa have enjoyed rising middle-class populations and a significant increase in investments in green economic growth.

After Egypt hosted COP27 in 2022, Kenya recently welcomed the inaugural Africa Climate Summit, where representatives across the African Union and various private sectors met to discuss sustainable opportunities as each country attempts to adapt to cl imate change and mitigate its adverse effects.

This mineral-rich continent hosting 30 to 40 percent of the world’s mineral deposits has seen countries increase heavy investments in renewable energy, green industrialisation, biodiversity conservation, and eco-friendly agriculture to accelerate global decarbonisation and benefit from the economic advantages.
