COP29 in Baku is over, but the battle to equip Africa for a post-carbon world is not. We stand at a crossroads of remaining in the status quo or taking transformational action that changes the trajectory of the global transition to a lower carbon development.
The UNU-INRA team will be hosting 2 side-events at UNCCD COP16 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as well as exhibiting our research and projects on the natural resource management and climate change nexus, at the UNU booth in the Science Oasis.
