The African Green Economy Secretariat (AGES), an initiative by ASEZA, is dedicated to promoting sustainable industrial development across the African continent. The AGES serves as a knowledge hub, connecting stakeholders with the latest developments, projects, research, and practices within the green economy sector across Africa.
By facilitating direct access to markets and business opportunities, AGES enables stakeholders to expand their reach and forge valuable partnerships across the continent. This initiative encourages robust collaboration between the public and private sectors and development partners, ultimately acting as an exchange platform for all collaborators. AGES welcomes inquiries and information from interested parties regarding both existing and emerging projects in the green economy space.
