AAP is excited to be hosting our next Public Dialogue “Climate Adaptation for Africa’s Cities” this Wednesday, February 23rd at 8:00am- 9:30am EDT. This dialogue session will be co-hosted by AAP consortium member - University of Cheikh Anta Diop. Climate change is undoubtedly one of Africa’s greatest challenges. This dialogue will focus on the importance of building resilient cities in Africa that can reduce the threats resulting from climate change: droughts, heat waves, landslides, storms, and – especially in coastal areas – floods. As the world recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic, Africa must take the opportunity to leverage rebuilding efforts to achieve environmentally sustainable economies and infrastructure that will engender resilience to climate change and build cities that are more inclusive and resilient. Panelists will share best practices, as well as approaches and resources needed for action.
