SUMMARY:NAfSA Member Presentation 3 - Summit of the Future
DESCRIPTION:The Race towards a Green(er) Economy: Examining the Contested Futures of Sustainable Development in the Congo\nYolian Ogbu\nSteering Africa’s Future: Youth and Future Generations  \nRegister: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_vN8-CpNlR9udw9urHE-rRw \nWe are pleased to invite you to participate in this knowledge production exercise where members of the National African Student Association collaborating under the umbrella of OSAA’s Africa’s Youth Voices network will present abstracts of knowledge products related to the issues addressed during the Summit of the Future. They will then leverage these resources to develop several knowledge products to inform African policymaking. Young people will provide perspectives into their research approaches while seeking the audience’s contribution.\n\n\nAbstract: The Race towards a Green(er) Economy: Examining the Contested Futures of Sustainable Development in the Congo \nAs the conditions of the climate crisis give rise to a clean energy transition\, multinational corporations have begun the scramble for a piece of the global critical mining market. 70% of the world’s cobalt is in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Despite its vast natural resources\, more than 70% of the DRC’s population lives in extreme poverty\, with high rates of child malnutrition and major infrastructure deficits. Commonly dubbed the “poverty paradox”\, the DRC has experienced decades of violent conflict and political instability resulting in over six million deaths since 1996. With global clean energy demands requiring at least double the mining capacity by 2035\, questions of resource extraction and ecological sustainability seem to be at odds. In this paper\, I explore the interrelation between multinational corporations (MNCs) and nation-states in extractive economies\, namely critical mineral production in the DRC. To do so\, I will present a historical overview of the concept of sustainable development from when it was first launched at the UN Conference on Environment and Development in 1992 to the subsequent trend of corporate and state-led sustainability reports across central Africa. Through a critical analysis of “sustainable development” through a case study on copper production and the political economy structures of the DRC over the last twenty years\, I seek to make an important intervention on external actors in the race towards a “greener economy”. With the average age of the DRC population being 16 years old\, I assert that the sustainable policy recommendations must consider and center the future of youth employment in green sectors of the mining economy as corporations look to increase production capacity. This critical intervention in the sustainable development debate offers a reconceptualization of the core/periphery state dynamic as we move towards organizing a Just Transition. \n\n\n\n\n\nResources:\n\n\nConcept Note for the Webinars:\n\n\nhttps://nationalafsa.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/CN-for-AYV-at-SoF-Webinars-16-Aug-2024.pdf\n\n\n\nPact of the Future:\n\nhttps://www.un.org/en/summit-of-the-future/pact-for-the-future-revisions\n\n\n\nAfrican Youth Declaration on the Summit of the Future (Pan African Youth Union):\n\n\nhttps://www.uneca.org/eca-events/sites/default/files/resources/documents/TCND/ARFSD2024/documents/final_version_english-african_youth_declaration_on_the_summit_of_the_future-1.pdf\n\n\n\nLaunch Event of Africa’s Youth Voices:\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1YJS-Y6r3E&t=780s

SUMMARY:NAfSA Member Presentation 2 - Summit of the Future
DESCRIPTION:Leveraging Climate Finance for Peacebuilding in Conflict-Affected States\nAline Abayo\nSteering Africa’s Future: International Peace and Security \n \nRegister:https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_tlTDYRdIRjargRCcKpkdcQ\n\nWe are pleased to invite you to participate in this knowledge production exercise where members of the National African Student Association collaborating under the umbrella of OSAA’s Africa’s Youth Voices network will present abstracts of knowledge products related to the issues addressed during the Summit of the Future. They will then leverage these resources to develop several knowledge products to inform African policymaking. Young people will provide perspectives into their research approaches while seeking the audience’s contribution.\n\n\nAbstract: Leveraging Climate Finance for Peacebuilding in Conflict-Affected States \nClimate change and armed conflicts are two of the most pressing global challenges of our time. When these crises intersect\, the consequences can be catastrophic. Heatwaves during wars\, or heavy rainfall causing power outages in hospitals\, are no longer hypothetical scenarios but real challenges faced by conflict-affected states globally. This study examines the role of climate finance in enhancing peace\, with a focus on integrating conflict impacted communities into the early planning stages of climate-centered initiatives. We utilize data from the Berkeley Carbon Trading Project and World Bank reports on foreign direct investment to compare climate finance in conflict-affected states with more stable regions. Our analysis reveals that conflict-affected states often receive insufficient climate finance\, with fewer projects approved and fewer credits generated. Specifically focusing on the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and South Sudan\, we delve into these countries’ priorities during international and regional climate negotiations\, such as the US Africa Leaders’ Summit and the Africa Climate Summit\, revealing trends in negotiations and investments. We also look at Case studies such as USAID’s Health Electrification and Treatment Enhancement (HETA) program in DRC and South Sudan\, the Matebe Hydroelectric plant in DRC\, and other Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects as prime examples of tackling both climate and peace goals. Our findings suggest that strategic climate finance schemes can facilitate dual benefits of environmental sustainability and peacebuilding\, which we term ‘peace co-benefits’ in this paper. We propose a methodological framework that encourages the development of high-quality carbon offset projects\, which not only address climate goals but also enhance peace as a co-benefit. \n\n\nAdviser(s) – John Moore\, Prof. Ethell Vereen\, Prof. Samuel Livingston \n\n\nResources:\n\n\nConcept Note for the Webinars:\n\n\nhttps://nationalafsa.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/CN-for-AYV-at-SoF-Webinars-16-Aug-2024.pdf\n\n\n\n\nAfrican Youth Declaration on the Summit of the Future (Pan African Youth Union):\n\n\nhttps://www.uneca.org/eca-events/sites/default/files/resources/documents/TCND/ARFSD2024/documents/final_version_english-african_youth_declaration_on_the_summit_of_the_future-1.pdf\n\n\n\nPact of the Future:\n\nhttps://www.un.org/en/summit-of-the-future/pact-for-the-future-revisions\n\n\nLaunch Event of Africa’s Youth Voices:\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1YJS-Y6r3E&t=780s

SUMMARY:NAfSA Member Presentation on Global Governance - UN Summit of the Future
DESCRIPTION:Unlocking Africa’s Growth Potential: The Role of Venture Capital in Technological Advancement and Economic Development\, \nBryan Duncan and Chukwuebuka Nwafor \nSteering Africa’s Future: Global Governance and Financing for Development \n \nRegister: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Ak7DU99FTzyZEzsqkifSow \nWe are pleased to invite you to participate in this knowledge production exercise where members of the National African Student Association collaborating under the umbrella of OSAA’s Africa’s Youth Voices network will present abstracts of knowledge products related to the issues addressed during the Summit of the Future. They will then leverage these resources to develop several knowledge products to inform African policymaking. Young people will provide perspectives into their research approaches while seeking the audience’s contribution.\n\n\nAbstract: Unlocking Africa’s Growth Potential: The Role of Venture Capital in Technological Advancement and Economic Development \nAfrica\, despite being the world poorest continent or for that reason\, is the one with the most growth potential. With the world’s largest free trade area and a 1.2-billion-person market\, Africa by creating an entirely new development path\, harnessing the potential of its resources and people proves every day that development is not a monolith. However\, as it experiences this growth technology remains a challenging sector for economic growth in Africa. The lag in the technology sector imposes a limit on innovation\, productivity\, and competitiveness. Venture Capital (VC)—professionally managed capital invested in private ventures—has historically been a driving force for the growth of leading global companies because it provides the necessary funds for technological advancements and innovation. Between 1980 and 2020\, 39 percent of Initial Public Offering were venture-backed\, and major firms such as Apple\, Microsoft\, and Amazon benefited from VC support. While VC has played a pivotal role in fostering economic development in established economies such as the United States\, its potential impact on African countries remains underexplored. This study explores the potential influence of venture capital on economic development in African countries – opportunities\, challenges\, and potential policy interventions required to maximize and foster sustainable growth and The findings offer valuable insights for policymakers\, investors\, and development practitioners seeking to leverage VC for sustainable development in Africa\, contributing to the discourse on innovative financing mechanisms and fostering partnerships for inclusive and resilient development. \n\n\nAdviser(s) – Juliet Elu\, John Moore and Prof. Ethell Vereen \n\n\nResources:\n\n\nConcept Note for the Webinars:\n\n\nhttps://nationalafsa.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/CN-for-AYV-at-SoF-Webinars-16-Aug-2024.pdf\n\n\n\n\nAfrican Youth Declaration on the Summit of the Future (Pan African Youth Union):\n\n\nhttps://www.uneca.org/eca-events/sites/default/files/resources/documents/TCND/ARFSD2024/documents/final_version_english-african_youth_declaration_on_the_summit_of_the_future-1.pdf\n\n\n\nPact of the Future:\n\nhttps://www.un.org/en/summit-of-the-future/pact-for-the-future-revisions\n\n\nLaunch Event of Africa’s Youth Voices:\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1YJS-Y6r3E&t=780s
