I was in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire this week and had several engagements focused on strengthening partnerships and accelerating sustainable #energyaccess across #Africa.
Together with Hélène N'Garnim-Ganga, the
@unitednations Resident Coordinator in Côte d'Ivoire, I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Sidi Ould Tah, the President of the
@afdb_group . We discussed deepening collaboration between the UN, Sustainable Energy for All and African Development Bank Group to foster green industrialisation and innovative finance models to achieve development at scale.
Together with
@olufemi.akinyelure , I also met with AfDB leadership, including Kevin Kariuki,
@waleshonibare , Daniel Schroth, and Caroline Mwangi, we explored how deeper collaboration can accelerate sustainable energy access and drive long-term development outcomes across the continent.
Strong partnerships, shared ambition and coordinated action will be essential to achieving universal energy access and sustainable development across Africa.
