AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Flood Relief in Ghana: Sierra Leone’s PDL voiced solidarity with Ghana after deadly floods in Accra killed at least 13 people, urging fair, fast humanitarian support and warning more rain could worsen conditions. Extreme Heat and Women’s Livelihoods: A new HERA report, “Counting the Cost of Heat,” says extreme heat is already cutting city economies by 4–8% of GDP and hitting women in informal work hardest, with global earnings losses estimated at $57bn a year. Heat, Health, and City Planning: The same report highlights rising heat as a growing public health threat and calls for urgent city solutions to protect workers and reduce heat-related deaths. Disaster Preparedness Support: Sierra Leone’s NDMA received 15 tablets from the Food Systems Resilience Program to strengthen disaster data collection and early warning for food crisis prevention. Youth Climate Action Wrap-Up: The Youth Climate Action Accelerator closed in Freetown with a push for young people to keep expanding climate and recycling, mangrove and renewable-energy initiatives. Environmental Rights Push: The ERA coalition launched 20-country environmental rights case studies to assess how communities can access information, participate in decisions, and seek justice. Power Sector and Reliability: UK-funded support with EDSA aims to improve electricity tracking, billing and payments—targeting losses and weak governance that undermine reliable power. Renewables for Education: EBKUST commissioned a university-wide solar electrification project to cut power disruptions and support greener, dependable learning and research. Global South Climate Finance: Vice President Juldeh Jalloh urged fairer climate finance in Hamburg, warning debt costs crowd out clean energy, health and education. Palm Oil Sustainability Warning: RSPO urged African governments and producers to keep sustainability central as palm oil expands, warning against environmental and social harm. Oil Exploration Move: Sierra Leone granted offshore exploration rights for four blocks to Nigeria’s Marginal Energy, as the country seeks renewed investor interest in upstream oil and gas.
