Climate and Energy in the Africa-Europe partnership: Leading the way to the AU-EU summit

Join the Africa-Europe Foundation (AEF) on Thursday 20 January 2022 from 17:00 to 18:30 CET and ahead of the 6th AU-EU Summit for a high-level debate focusing on the critical themes of climate and energy in the Africa-Europe partnership.
To facilitate an open and frank dialogue on key, often contentious, issues between our two continents, AEF is organising three high-level “Talking Africa-Europe” specials focusing on the priority issues of Climate and Energy (January 20), Migration and Mobility (January 27) and Vaccine Access and Equity (February 3).
This debate will build on the aftermath of COP 26, which have left unhappy both climate activists and made African partners keen to address the key challenge of insufficient access to energy on their own continent. By addressing the best ways to take care of ensuring energy transition for all, this debate aims to foster an honest and frank dialogue about the best pathways to energy transition for the two continents and its people, that ensures both access to energy for all and climate concern.

About this event
COVID-19 is expected to delay economic growth both in Africa as well as the rest of the world for years to come. However, technology and digital opportunities across Africa are growing deep as well as broad unlocking new opportunities and innovations, despite setbacks from COVID-19. The resilience of Africa’s Internet economy, coupled with growing private consumption population, strong developer talent, public and private investments, investments in digital infrastructure, connectivity and new government policies and regulations will continue to drive growth. The growing number of tech and digital economy based companies are introducing avenues for significant economic growth that will help unlock new sources of value, entrepreneurship, business growth, product innovation, job creation, reduce poverty, and contribute to overcoming Africa’s future development challenges.

Realizing Africa’s full agricultural potential will require significant investment, innovation and technology advancement.

How should the Biden administration approach Africa?

On Friday, December 17th 2021, 10h00 - 11h00 (EST), the Brookings think tank will be hosting an event on how the Biden administration should be approaching Africa.
Africa has not been a top strategic priority for the United States. While successive U.S. administrations have sought to advance health, trade, and energy initiatives, high-level U.S. attention toward the continent has often been limited to concerns about security, extremism, and migration flows. Under the Trump administration, the United States became narrowly preoccupied with China’s influence over a number of African states, while the Biden administration has largely been focused on the civil war in Ethiopia. During a recent visit, however, Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed hope the United States can build stronger relations, recognizing the continent's vast economic potential and many promising trends.
