The choice of the Pan-African Parliament as the venue for the meeting of the PRC Subcommittee on on Human Rights, Democracy, and Governance (HRDG) underscores the growing importance of the institution in the @_AfricanUnion governance architecture. Over recent years, the Pan-African Parliament has become a focal point for discussions and on critical continental issues, from legislative alignment to fostering democratic governance. Hosting this meeting therefore highlights the increasing desire of AU institutions and member states to engage with the Pan-African Parliament as a hub of influence and a platform for collaboration. #DGTrends

African Parliamentarians push for a People-Centered Climate Deal at COP29 The Pan-African Parliament (PAP), in collaboration with the African Group of Negotiators (AGN) and key stakeholders, hosted its second side event at COP29 under the theme “People’s Representatives for a People-Centred Deal: African Group of Negotiators Conversation with African Parliamentarians.” The event brought together parliamentarians and African climate negotiators to align Africa’s climate priorities and strengthen the continent's voice in the global climate discourse. H.E.Chief Fortune Charumbira, President of the Pan-African Parliament, underscored the urgency of Africa’s climate action during his keynote address. “Africa is on the frontlines of climate change, despite contributing the least to global emissions. Our communities need a climate deal that prioritizes adaptation, resilience, and the unique realities of our continent. Parliamentarians must play a critical role in advocating for a just and sustainable future,” he emphasized. The discussion revolved around three key roles for African parliamentarians in the climate negotiation process: 1. Legislation – Enacting laws that integrate climate adaptation, mitigation, and sustainable development. 2. Oversight – Monitoring the implementation of international commitments, including the Paris Agreement, and ensuring transparency in climate finance. 3. Advocacy – Amplifying the voices of African communities to ensure their priorities are central to climate policies. #PAPatCOP29 #ClimateJusticeNow #OneAfricaOneVoice
