Summary

The event aims to highlight experiences and evidence on the ground on mobilising transformative financing to invest in low-carbon climate-resilient development in Africa, building on lessons learned from countries such as South Africa and Ethiopia. The objective of the discussions is to frame a replicable blueprint that African countries can use to develop strategies for unlocking and catalysing public private partnerships, domestic resources, foreign direct investment and climate finance for renewable energy deployment in support of sustainable and inclusive development on the continent post-2015.
