2022 Africa Climate Week: Experts discuss Africa’s needs and priorities ahead of COP27
Amid a call for urgent action to safeguard the continent from climate change, Gabon’s President Ali Bongo Ondimba opened the 2022 Africa Climate Week by highlighting his country’s efforts to boost climate action and calling for continuous collective efforts.
“For more than ten years, we have intensified our efforts to protect our remarkable forestry heritage and build a low-carbon economy,” Ondimba said. “Consequently, Gabon, which has already achieved the objectives set by the Paris Agreement, is considered the most carbon-positive country in the world.”
