Peace and the environment are inextricably linked. Amid the prevailing security and environmental challenges, it is crucial that stakeholders dedicated to peace and environmental causes at the local, regional, and global levels engage in a community-led conversation that promotes a greener, more peaceful, and sustainable Africa.

By fostering collaboration among diverse communities and organisations, the summit aims to address the complex interplay between ecological preservation and conflict resolution. Through shared knowledge, innovative solutions, and collective action, we aspire to cultivate an Africa where harmony with nature and peaceful coexistence go hand in hand.
