South Africa unveils first wave of green hydrogen projects
South Africa has unveiled six green hydrogen projects spanning sustainable fuels, industrial decarbonisation and green manufacturing, as it seeks to attract investment and expand the sector.
Kenya is seeking to expand its influence in global trade negotiations by assuming the role of President of the Trade and Development Board (TDB) within the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). Kenya's presidency of the TDB led the 73rd Session of the board, which aims to coordinate efforts to unlock opportunities for economic diversification, investment, and technology transfer, promoting inclusive and sustainable development.
The Ministry of Trade believes this role enables Kenya to shape discussions that will influence the UN General Assembly's agenda. "During Kenya's presidency, the TDB is tackling serious global trade disruptions, particularly those caused by the Strait of Hormuz," the ministry noted. This position also signifies a significant responsibility for Kenya, as it presents an opportunity to advance inclusive, sustainable, and equitable global trade and development.
The UN General Assembly will consider the outcomes from the 73rd TDB session, giving Kenya a platform to elevate African priorities in global economic governance.
