A more empowered, innovative and self reliant #Africa is possible if we provide space for women and girls to drive #conservation and stewardship of the environment #APAC2022@AWF_Official

The @APA_Congress is underway and I reflected on my expectations. All the activities and resources we are planning, will be led by people. I therefore expect discussions on how we build the required expertise to address conservation issues. #APAC2022#apacyouth2022#naturesvalue
Let's look for long term solutions to our conservation challenges, band aid actions cannot work!
To partnerships that have a lasting impact!, 🥂

This morning, the youth have challenged #Africanleaders to engage and trust them with decisions making rules that will impact their future and by extension the future of Africa. Happy to see @IssoufouMhm and @Haile_Roman commit to support them in their ambitions going forward.
