| dc.description | Globally, humanity is currently contending with a triple planetary crisis: climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss. For Africa, climate change has become a risk multiplier that threatens developmental gains and forces a rethink of the business-as-usual model in all sectors. At the core of finding opportunities and addressing the challenges posed by the impacts of climate change is coherent environmental governance.

of critical minerals and metals for the global energy transition presents an opportunity for African countries to address some of the shortcomings in environmental governance. | en_US |
