How can trade finance better support Africa's just energy transition?
At the ongoing World Bank Group and IMF Annual Meetings in Bangkok, Power Shift Africa's energy Co-Lead, Karabo Mokgonyana (@K_Mokgonyana),will speak at a Civil Society Policy Forum session on the role of trade finance in advancing a just energy transition.
The discussion will examine how the International Finance Corporation (IFC) can better align its trade financing with climate goals and support the expansion of sustainable energy, while addressing the risks of continued fossil fuel financing.

Africa is advancing clean cooking, but commitments must deliver results.
Over one-third of the $2.2bn pledged in 2024 has reached projects across 28 African countries. The next step: affordable, accessible clean cooking for all. iea.org/news/international-l…

Ahead of #COP31, clean cooking progress must be measured beyond policies adopted. Governments need clear targets, transparent monitoring and funding that delivers affordable solutions to households.
Commitments matter. Accountability delivers results. lnkd.in/p/dinWRVqF

For Mr. @EdwinMuhumuzaB of @youthgogreen, Africa needs to take a united voice to #COP31 and push for greater financing for the energy transition.
From national dialogue to African action: turning conversations into a clear position on climate finance.

🌍 Key Takeaway from our Stakeholders’ Breakfast Meeting
Immaculate Tugwire emphasized the need to move beyond global commitments and invest in grassroots action, where implementation happens.
As #COP31 approaches, financing must remain central to Africa’s energy transition.
“When we get into these rooms to negotiate, we are not going there as recipients. We should go as partners. Africa has a lot to offer, we have the raw materials, we have everything they need. 1/2
The moment you know you have something you’re offering, then it is business, it is not donor and recipient.”
Cynthia Kemigisha at #StakeholdersBreakfastMeeting
"The Ministry of Water and Environment's climate change department is now making sure that whenever hydropower plants are developed, the hydrological studies are climate-informed. If we don't look ahead to what will happen to the resource we depend on, we have a problem, 1/2
our catchments are being degraded."
Pamela Musimenta from the Ministry of Water and Environment. #StakeholdersBreakfastMeeting

“Let us put women at the center of every financing decision. Every climate financer funding renewable energy should ask: where is a woman gaining from this? Because when women are helped, the entire community is helped. 1/2
“Let us put women at the center of every financing decision. Every climate financer funding renewable energy should ask: where is a woman gaining from this? Because when women are helped, the entire community is helped. 1/2
Let us invest in clean cooking for women’s initiatives, not just look for the bigger, bigger things.”
