Nigeria’s efforts to localize its renewable energy value chain has received a major boost from the Rockefeller Foundation in a bid to scale up solutions that improve outcomes in health, energy, and economic mobility through the renewable energy spheres.
The Special Presidential Envoy on Climate Action, Ajuri Ngelale, facilitated a strategic meeting with the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Rockefeller Foundation, Dr Rajiv J. Shah, to explore collaboration opportunities. The partnership aims to leverage Nigeria’s expertise and the Rockefeller Foundation’s global reach to drive sustainable development and address pressing global challenges.
“Nigeria’s value chain localization initiative within the renewable energy technology sphere received a boost during a terrific engagement we were honoured to have with the President and Chief Executive Officer of the influential Rockefeller Foundation, Dr. Rajiv J. Shah, on Wednesday night in Abuja.
The Rockefeller Foundation seeks to inspire, foster, and scale up solutions that enable improved outcomes in health, energy, and upward economic mobility for populations across the globe. “As Chairman of the Presidential Steering Committee on Project Evergreen, this was an important and strategic opportunity to synergize and enhance global collaboration to undergird Nigeria’s efforts,” Ngelale said.
