This scenario would imply that planetary systems are saved on terms that serve today\u2019s elites, while extreme poverty is allowed to persist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He underscored that the CCDA reaffirmed its pivotal role as a forum for the continent to identify opportunities and solutions in the face of climate and development crises.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mr. Pedro described the 2023 CCDA as a milestone which has set the tone for the African Climate Summit which seeks to address the increasing exposure to climate change and its associated costs particularly in Africa. The Summit (4-6 Sept 2023) will serve as a platform to inform, frame, and influence commitments, pledges, and outcomes, ultimately leading to the development of the Nairobi Declaration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commenting on the CCDA, Mr. Pedro said discussions have been open, constructive, and encouraging. Furthermore, the discussions underscored that by uniting and engaging in honest dialogue on potential pathways towards a greener, more inclusive Africa, the 21st century will be paved with opportunities for Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mr. Pedro said a dual approach of advocating for climate justice at the international level and actively pursuing concrete solutions at the national and local levels in African countries was needed as \u2018This is not a choice between one or the other\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strengthening the blue economy as per the Moroni declaration and to use Africa\u2019s mining sector for green industrialization as well as to leverage carbon markets for monetizing the continent\u2019s natural wealth are all part of an integrated endeavor to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and Agenda 2063, Mr. Pedro said. He commended Kenya for paving the way for African voices and solutions to feature prominently at the upcoming SDG Summit and COP28 in the United Arab Emirates in November 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u201cWe are establishing the foundation for a sustained strong African position, carrying on the legacy of COP27,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paying tribute to participants and partners, including the African Union Commission,&nbsp; the African Development Bank and the host government of Kenya, Mr. Pedro called for productive and outcome-driven engagements at the Africa Climate Summit &nbsp;(4-6 September), building on the results of the 11th CCDA.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pdfprnt-buttons pdfprnt-buttons-post pdfprnt-top-bottom-left\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nairobi, Kenya, 4 September 2023 (ECA) &#8211; Africa,&nbsp; which has suffered climate change impacts the most, must accelerate climate action through effective strategies to ensure a just transition, the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) Acting Executive Secretary, Antonio Pedro has challenged leaders. \u201cThe lack of the right global enabling environment and strong global action on<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":527180,"featured_media":477723,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"aside","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"translated_post_url_fr":"","_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[12591,12046],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-477722","post","type-post","status-publish","format-aside","has-post-thumbnail","category-feature","category-leaders-en","post_format-post-format-aside","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.5 (Yoast SEO v27.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>In Nairobi, ECA\u2019s Antonio Pedro calls on Africa to accelerate climate action and ensure a just transition - Financial Afrik<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Headed by Adama Wade and his team of 20 journalists, Kapital Afrik offers strategic and financial information to executives and managers.
