dc.description.abstract | After three days of brainstorming on the opportunities and challenges of the green economy for industrialization in Central Africa, about sixty experts from eight countries in the sub-region and several international organizations have appealed to member States and the private sector to establish useful partnerships likely to mount special technologies for profitable green industrialization. This was at the 30th session of the Inter Governmental Committee of Experts (ICE) for Central Africa co-organized by the Government of the Republic of Chad and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) in the Chadian capital. According to the experts, a fresh approach to dependable greening of industrialization in Central Africa “requires a fundamental rethink of cash-based economic approaches and the adoption of appropriate industrial policies for the processing and commercialization of high value-added products”. Accordingly, they added, the green economy is a major opportunity since it fosters the adoption of healthy environmental practices that help to preserve and optimize natural capital, control global warming and improve the living conditions of the population. | en |
