Two of our current research fellows, Albert Ahenkan and Samuel Weniga Anuga, presented their joint project on Weaponized Interdependence and Renewable Energy Transitions in Africa-Europe Relations: Impact of the EU Green Deal on 18th of April at Bonn‘s IDOS (German Institute of Development and Sustainability).

During the brown bag lunch meeting, around 20 interested experts discussed the chances for meaningful cooperation with the EU and its African partners around the Green Deal and green hydrogen production. Albert and Samuel remained hopeful that African states could improve their positions in spite of many continuing challenges and „dark sides“ of EU-African relations.
