The Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the European Union, in partnership with the European Investment Bank (EIB), will be hosting 30-days of dialogue on green transition and green investment between African and European partners. Events and virtual meetings will take place across Africa and Europe, beginning on 24 March and culminating on 23 April, with the High-Level EU-Africa Green Investment Forum being held in Lisbon.

The Green Investment Forum will bring together European and African political leaders, policy makers and business representatives to discuss best-practice, partnership and practical solutions to accelerate sustainable development, green investment and post-pandemic recovery.

Over the next month, more than 25 virtual and physical conferences – the Green Talks – will be organised across Africa and Europe by Portuguese diplomatic representations, the EIB and other partners. Representatives of African and European Union governments and institutions, the private sector and the academic community, non-governmental associations and civil society will participate in the final event in Lisbon on 23 April.
