Actualizing climate action and a green recovery in Africa

The Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) has outlined a raft of ambitious solutions and innovative measures to support Africa in integrating climate-smart actions to build forward better as the continent embarks on a robust pandemic recovery agenda. Green and blue investments opportunities are Africa’s best bet for economic recovery creating an enabling environment for the realization of sustainable development goals (SDGs) and the achievement of the Paris Agreements targets. It noted that Africa has the advantage of vast nature based ecosystems that can be leveraged to attract more green and blue bonds financing in addition to the $100bn climate financing promised for developing nations under the Paris Agreement.
