    • Fossil Fuel PhaseoutAfrica stands at a critical juncture — one where the gradual phaseout of fossil fuels must be balanced with the continent’s urgent development needs. In this section, we explore what a fair, just, and inclusive fossil fuel phaseout looks like for African communities, economies, and ecosystems. From policy debates to frontline stories, this category sheds light on how Africa can transition without being left behind.
    • Governance & Transparency
    • Green Jobs & the Future of WorkAfrica’s energy transition is reshaping jobs, skills, and the future of work. This category explores green jobs in Africa, renewable energy employment, and how the shift to sustainable industries is transforming livelihoods across the continent. From clean energy value chains and local manufacturing to workers’ rights, reskilling, and social protection, these stories examine whether the green economy is creating decent, inclusive, and secure jobs. We ask critical questions about who benefits from the transition — and how Africa’s green future can deliver dignity, opportunity, and shared prosperity for current and future generations.
    • Policy & AdvocacyEnergy and climate policies shape the pace, direction, and fairness of Africa’s energy transition. In this category, we analyse energy policy, climate governance, and advocacy efforts influencing extractive industries and clean energy pathways at national, regional, and global levels. From just transition policies and fossil fuel phase-out plans to civil society advocacy and accountability reforms, these articles explore how decisions are made — and how citizens, movements, and coalitions can influence policies to deliver transparent, equitable, and people-centred outcomes for Africa.
    • Technology & InnovationTechnology and innovation are reshaping how Africa produces, distributes, and governs energy. This category explores clean energy technologies, digital innovation, and locally driven solutions powering Africa’s energy transition. From renewable energy systems, energy storage, and smart grids to digital tools for transparency, accountability, and community participation, these stories examine how innovation can accelerate access, efficiency, and justice. With a critical lens on equity, ownership, and impact, this section asks how technology can serve people, strengthen governance, and support a truly inclusive and sustainable energy future for Africa.
