What if, instead of only focusing on mobilising & de-risking private finance, we centred redirecting, divesting & regulating the financial drivers of climate crisis? My article in @Climate_Policy on a more transformative approach to climate finance tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

Using the case of Uganda, @laurenhermanus and I, document four cases of distributed technology and nuance assumptions/euphoria around green techs. Who is driving these 'innovations' and what imaginaries for urban Africa live within them?
Excited to share this @UrbanAfricaACC research, #Distributedenergy, #decentralization and the future of #Africancities, written with @lizacirolia in this @IIED curated special issue #environment&urbanization

Any favorite new papers about change agents working within powerful organizations to create radical change in a climate change context? And possibly about their relationships with activist movements?

Decompressing and distilling insights after 2 weeks of intense ‘conferencing’ at #IST2023 on #SustainabilityTransiitons in Utrecht (Netherlands) followed by #ISIRC2023 on #SocialInnovation in Guimarães (Portugal). Here are some of my insights, highlights & delights >

Today, on the sidelines of #AfricaClimateSummit2023, @WRIafrica brings together voices from across the continent to debunk common myths about energy systems in Africa.
It’s time to get real about African Energy Transitions.

Amazing to work intensively with our colleagues from @iihsin during the @ReSET_Energy project meeting!
The main objective was to brainstorm a framework to explain how socio-technical imaginaries get stabilised in policy regimes and lead to infrastructure reconfigurations🧵
