Global growth in renewable energy projects in Africa remains stagnant, with only one project approved by the Green Climate Fund since 2021, despite significant health and environmental benefits. The chronic underfunding of the GCF, alongside persistent fossil fuel subsidies, hampers progress, while private sector solar developers face significant financial hurdles. As health impacts from climate change intensify, the need for urgent action and innovative research linking climate and health outcomes becomes increasingly critical.
Countries can halve premature death rates by 2050 by targeting 15 key health threats, primarily tobacco use, according to a Lancet Commission report. The report emphasizes the need for public financing of essential medicines and highlights the importance of high tobacco taxes as a critical policy tool. With a 23% chance of a pandemic similar to COVID-19 within the next decade, the urgency for improved health systems and preparedness is paramount.
Gavi secured vital support at the UN General Assembly, with the European Commission pledging €260 million for 2026-2027 to enhance global vaccination efforts. This funding, part of Gavi's goal to protect 500 million children by 2030, complements a $1 billion partnership with the U.S. Development Finance Corporation for rapid access to funds during health emergencies.
