1/5 In our paper @AMedinil and I look at green (energy) transition. As the EU/Africa try to catch up in green tech/industrialisation, the EU arguably has a strategic interest in Africa's economic development as it seeks resource partnerships in the continent.

#EU ambitions in and of themselves are laudable. But given that we live in a global village, perceptions matter, especially when there's talk of double standards and hypocrisy. Time for a rethink? See @ECDPM paper by @AMedinil @KoDekeyser @kar_karaki
