Welcome to our newsletter, where we explore the intersection of climate action and global trade dynamics. How effective has the world been in addressing climate change post-COP28, and what can we learn from the water sector's approach to sustainable development? As we reflect on the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative, we question its impact on global trade and Africa's development. In our multimedia section, we delve into Africa's health security challenges and reexamine the concept of democracy in African contexts.
