The transition for us in Africa should first of all be about connecting the billions of people in Africa without electricity and energy. We cannot talk about transition without pointing out the issue of access in Africa. Health of Mother Earth SDCEA Oil Change International Thuli Makama Friends of Lake Turkana

The transition should not just be about the critical minerals needed for transition. Who needs these minerals? Is it Africans or foreign powers seeking to use these minerals to push their next big move Health of Mother Earth Nnimmo SDCEA CRADESC Friends of Lake Turkana ERA/FoEN Oil Change International

Transition is not only energy transition, the transition should be more than energy, it should be wholesome, It should be about the system, The transition must challenge all forms of neocolonialism - Ivonne Yanez Acción Ecológica Health of Mother Earth Nnimmo SDCEA CRADESC

Most of the energy is going to wars, feeding machines, and AI. So the energy is not even for humans, most of the energy extracted from the global south is not serving the people. Acción Ecológica Friends of Lake Turkana SDCEA Nnimmo Oil Change International ERA/FoEN KEBETKACHE WOMEN

Any energy plan not meant for community development cannot serve the people, most of our energy plans are developed by the elites and supposed experts from outside the global south.

When we destroy nature we are ultimately destroying ourselves and nature will always defend itself. CRADESC Health of Mother Earth SDCEA Friends of Lake Turkana Oil Change International ERA/FoEN

The investment in carbon offsets is aimed at erasing the evidence of their exploitation. The state of global capitalism will never encourage a just or fair world. We should mobilise and use every strategy available to campaign and organise. SDCEA CRADESC Acción Ecológica
