Africa is one of the most vulnerable continents to climate change and it impacts, which pose a serious threat to its
water security. It is urgent to strengthen the resilience of the region." Eric Tardieu, DG International Office of Water MiguelCOMMITMENT 3 Mobilizing researchers and young people to work for the climate Advancing knowledge of climate change is essential to inform decision-makers and bring about progress in the implementation of effective and sustainable solutions. The involvement of young people is an asset for international cooperation. They are the new face of knowledge of tomorrow’s world.

COMMITMENT 5 Zero emissions target The greenhouse gases emitted by human activities to produce, consume and travel have a long-term impact on the environment and are the main culprits of global warming. The Paris Agreement enshrined the “zero- emission” objective, which the One Planet Summit initiatives hope to achieve through concrete solutions.
