Policy Brief: Acceleration of sustainable growth through Innovation, Education and Awareness Raising
Achieving sustainable growth in Africa calls for integrated strategies that align climate action with economic development and energy access. With rising demand for clean energy and resilient infrastructure, the continent stands at a critical juncture where innovative business models, local production ecosystems, and targeted financial support can drive a low- carbon, inclusive transformation. Unlocking this potential will depend on the ability to tailor solutions to diverse regional contexts and audiences – whether through decentralised energy systems, mobility innovations, or sustainable agriculture. Public-private partnerships, supportive policy frameworks, and investment in skills and entrepreneurship will be central to building resilient economies.
