ONEPlanET’s impact is being measured through several key performance indicators (KPIs), including the successful implementation of its WEF Nexus modeling framework, engagement of stakeholders in policy and investment strategies, and the establishment of participatory case studies in Songwe (Malawi/Tanzania), Inkomati- Usuthu (South Africa), and the Niger (Nigeria) river basins. These case studies serve as testing grounds for innovative policies and technological interventions that can be replicated and scaled across the continent. The project has already made significant strides in integrating renewable energy solutions and addressing socio-economic inequalities through data-driven decision-making. By co-designing and testing a WEF Nexus Toolkit, ONEPlanET is enabling stakeholders to optimize existing resources and implement the most effective policies for their specific regional contexts. This multi-sectoral approach ensures that economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social well-being are pursued in tandem. As Africa continues to navigate complex climate and development challenges, initiatives like ONEPlanET play a pivotal role in shaping a resilient and sustainable future. By fostering collaboration among diverse actors, promoting knowledge- sharing, and implementing actionable strategies, ONEPlanET is not just an academic exercise—it is a catalyst for real-world impact, driving Africa’s transition towards a cleaner, more equitable, and sustainable energy landscape. Powering Africa’s Future through EMERGE EU Project The urgent need for clean energy and sustainable resource management is more pressing than ever, especially in Africa, where energy demand continues to rise. The EMERGE EU Project is a visionary initiative designed to equip key stakeholders across the continent with the knowledge, tools, and collaborative frameworks necessary to drive a sustainable energy future. Beyond increasing the production of clean energy, the project seeks to bridge cultural and socioeconomic divides, ensuring that the transition is inclusive, equitable, and beneficial to all.
