Ethiopia’s ambitious renewable energy projects show projects like EACOP are out of sync with the future Africa is building at ACS2 — #StopEACOP Patience Nabukali discusses the impacts of the EACOP project at a side event organized by the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty at ACS2.

ACS2 showed progress, and Ethiopia is on a serious RE investment path, proving we can develop without harming our ecosystem. However, false solutions like carbon markets and greenwashing persist. Read our wrap-up blog. #StopEACOP!

We were present at ACS-2! It began with a powerful People's Assembly where civil society organizations came together to strategize key priorities. Omar Elmawi, convener of Africa Movement of Movements, shared why this fight matters. #StopEACOP #ClimateJustice #ACS2 #ACS2025
