As global power competition intensifies, its impact on climate, institutions, and conflict grows. Africa, historically contributing the least to global emissions, faces disproportionate climate risks and heightened external interest in its resources. This seminar explores strategies for African agency, including defending national interests and influencing global commitments on climate justice, such as loss and damage.
