This post critiques the extent to which the present green finance rush embraces laws and policies that are largely externally motivated prescriptions designed, mandated, or foisted on resource-rich African countries through creative channels of geopolitical norm diffusion.

The symposium brings together diverse perspectives and voices on justice and climate change to articulate a vision for just and effective climate policies using the EGD as a case study. The symposium will be published on the Afronomicslaw.org and the Sustainable Global Environmental Law (University of Amsterdam) websites.Interested participants should send an email notification about their intention to submit a contribution by January 23, 2023.
