Amani Africa- an excellent think tank with brilliant, African analysts. Looking forward to working with them to sensitise the continent on the benefits of human mobility within the climate, peace and security agenda!

An individual in my DMs asked me to comment on the current US tariff policy and its impact on Africa. I’m no expert, but as an interested observer, I’d say the impact is negligible (unless you’re BMW SA or Mercedes SA). The US imported about $3 trillion worth of goods and

The #KDMECC acknowledges migration as both an adaptation strategy and a consequence of climate change. It fosters cross-ministerial coordination to ensure a whole-of-government approach to addressing climate mobility.

Well managed movement across the continent can unlock the huge economic potential of the continent. It’s really high time for the continent to realise its potential!

The horrific violence against displacement camps in #Sudan killed innocent people, including aid workers. Attacks on civilians and aid workers violates international law; we must do more to protect humanitarians and ensure the safe delivery of aid.

Djibouti is hosting a national dialogue with government and partners to integrate migration into climate change adaptation strategies. In a region facing recurrent droughts and water scarcity, this is key to integrating climate-induced mobility into national adaptation plans.

Great to meet the new AUC ARBE Commissioner at the partners meeting this morning and hear about his priorities for AFRICA, all of which will prevent forced migration and provide Africans with the opportunities they need to stay.

Many thanks Envoy Ali for including UN partners in this profound meeting, where we also deliberated on how human mobility, when well managed, contributes to adaptation and development in Africa.

600 million Africans in the dark? Unacceptable!! Africa is rich in solar, wind, and innovation — but short on power lines, investment, and global leverage. Watts Up Africa unpacks this paradox and what MUST change. Visit wattsupafrica.org for more!

Such a powerful message about Africa. The old fashioned narrative has no place in the Africa of today! Africans already have the solutions, the workforce and the natural resources… it’s the continent of the future.
