AfOX Insaka on Climate Change and Just transitions in Africa

Recent geopolitical challenges provide a challenging backdrop as countries meet in Egypt mid-November 2022 for the annual UN climate change conference. A critical issue that will define the negotiations is the Just Transition - deciding how countries can transition to low-carbon and climate-resilient societies in a just manner. African countries find themselves at the heart of the debate as they try to balance rapid economic transformation and ambitious climate action. How, then, can Africa realise the Just Transition?

Rebecca Clark

I am a doctoral candidate in political theory at Nuffield College, University of Oxford. My primary research interests are in social and political philosophy, feminist philosophy, and methods of social critique.

My current research project explores feminist perspectives on work and the home. What, for example, is wrong with the gendered division of labour? How should reproductive labour ideally be organised? And what steps should we take to achieve this?

Salma Daoudi currently pursues a DPhil in International Relations at the University of Oxford, specialising in international security and health in asymmetric warfare, as a Qatar Oxford Thatcher scholar.

Her DPhil project explores the weaponisation of health in Syria and the ways in which, beyond its immediate effects, the repercussions on health, political, and socio-economic vulnerabilities extend beyond the locus and temporality of violence.
