CCDA-9 to bolster Africa’s participation at COP26

According to ClimDev-Africa the main focus for discussion at this year’s high level segment will be a special session dedicated to Africa’s journey to COP26 with an aim of ensuring a just transition alongside a multilateral climate framework that delivers for the continent. The keynote addresses will offer emerging insights on the Paris Agreement and the key issues for Africa as well as the bold proposals put forward by ECA earlier in the year as articulated in its ground-breaking statement Building forward for African Green Recovery Report. Also featuring prominently in this year’s conference is the leveraging of green and blue economy to build the resilience of African Small Island Developing States (SIDS). The core themes will be complemented by parallel tracks organized by strategic sectors related to climate change notably blue economy; energy; agriculture, finance, technology, health and nature based solutions (NbS). Other issues to be discussed at CCDA-IX include opportunities and challenges for the emerging carbon markets, investments and uptake of climate information services.
