In line with this commitment, key decision-makers from Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, and Namibia recently gathered in Nairobi for the final session of the Just Transition Planning Masterclass, a critical capacity-building initiative to support African countries in planning a fair and inclusive transition to sustainable development.
Bubacarr Sankareh, Lead Advisor to the Director-General for East Africa Regional Development and Business Delivery Office, underscored the importance of the initiative in his opening remarks:"The transition toward clean and sustainable development will require transforming how we produce and consume energy, manage resources, and drive our economies. These transformations will disrupt economies and livelihoods.

By targeting decision makers across various sectors, the Masterclass will bridge these levels and integrate just transition principles into planning for sustainable development.
