From
Sabrine Emran, Economist at the Policy Center for the New South will be speaking at a side-event to the AfDB Annual Meetings titled “How can European and African Countries Work Together for a “Just Transition” and Green Industrialization?”. This side event will take the shape of a workshop organized jointly by the European Think Tanks Group (ETTG) and the African Centre for Technology Studies (ACTS).
The workshop will address questions surrounding the collaboration between European and African nations in leveraging opportunities for green industrialization.
With a spotlight on achieving a "Just Transition”, the event aims to explore avenues for mutual benefit, understanding disparities, and navigating challenges amidst the evolving global landscape.
Green energy and industrialization are pivotal aspects shaping Africa-Europe relations, with both continents striving for sustainable development amidst shifting international dynamics.
The workshop aims to dissect narratives, interests, and tensions surrounding green industrialization initiatives, with a focus on fostering a shared vision for equitable growth and development.
This event is organized in parallel to the African Development Bank (AfDB) Annual Meetings that will be held in Nairobi, Kenya. The dialogue offers an opportunity to feed into the AfDB deliberations.
