In this op-ed I urge the African Union to seek reparative justice in structural global economic reforms and better governance and not merely in tokenistic financial compensation. premiumtimesng.com/opinion/775485… Mbeva Liti UoBris PolicyStudies Perivoli Africa Research Centre

I told Africa leaders today to be alert on the moves by some of our intl development partners to legtimitise speculative SRM technologies as a key part of climate solutions when much more could be done to scale up well known and tested green technologies such as solar and wind.
