    img-20161022-wa0008

    Over the last four days we have had discussions on very pertinent topics and an agenda that is dear to me and our continent- on how to take forward the implementation of the Paris Agreement. As we prepare ourselves for the Conference of Parties (COP22) with one African voice, the reflections from this conference will be instrumental in accentuating Africa’s positions for strong action.

    It’s been very clear from the discourse that we need a coordinated and programmatic approach to climate change across the continent. Working in silos or doing business as usual is no longer tenable especially as we grapple with the meager resources at our disposal. We need to leverage and compliment the resources and build on the capacities of all players in the climate change arena.

    I wish all African climate negotiators and scientists a safe travel back to their respective domiciles and look forward to working together on this important agenda for the African continent,” Mungu Amubariki ( God bless).
