The message of this report is that Africa can lead the world on climate-resilient, low carbon development. Some countries in the region are already doing so, and others should follow. Many of the policies needed to build more resilient societies that can cope with climate change are long overdue. Raising agricultural productivity, conserving land and forestry resources, and planning more sustainable cities would reduce vulnerability and drive down poverty. In each of these areas there would be significant global benefits for climate change through reduced greenhouse gas emissions. This is a triple-win scenario for economic growth, poverty reduction and climate. The report put emphasis on Africa’s leadership role. The central message of this report is: Africa is well placed to be part of that leadership.
