"Africa does not lack ideas. The challenge is not identifying what works — it is ensuring that successful experiences are replicated, adapted and expanded across the continent. That is precisely why we are here." — @ClaverGatete, Executive Secretary @ECA_OFFICIAL #ADIF2026

@ECASROSA Director @EuniceKamwendo: "Africa's future lies not in what we extract, but in the value we create"... #CriticalMinerals #Industrialization #EnergyTransition

Mr. Jean Luc Mastaki, Director for @ECASROCA has urged stakeholders in the new regional project on sustainable mining to swiftly implement the initiative aimed at fostering socially responsible, value chains for energy transition minerals in Southern Africa. #SADC #CriticalMinerals #EnergyTransition

"The energy transition allows the #SADC region to move towards beneficiation, technological upgrading & the development of competitive value chains in an environmentally sustainable, socially responsible manner aligned with climate ambitions," Mr. Jean Luc Mastaki.

A #SADC region mining project led by ECA will translate GDP into inclusive growth, strengthen linkages to local economies & expand durable, community-centered jobs & regional cooperation while meeting rising global demand for critical minerals, says @EuniceKamwendo @ECA_OFFICIAL
