In their Own Words

“We need to address climate change and its impact on the poor. We need to look at climate action and design instruments to have a positive impact on Africa’s most vulnerable communities.”

“The private sector contributes less than 14% of climate finance in Africa. Whereas in countries like the US, it contributes about 90%”

“Growing poverty and inequality are Africa’s most pressing challenges. In 2022, Africa has more than half of the world’s poor which is more than 50% of the total population.
Alarmingly more than half of Africa’s population, 546 million people were living in poverty last year alone. This is a 75% increase since 1990.”
H.E. Dr. Nemera Gebeyehu, State Minister for Planning and Development, Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia

“The tightening of monetary policy in developed economies has lowered global demand and increased borrowing costs, thereby reducing investment in African countries.”
