India’s Role in Sub-Saharan Africa: COP-26 Expectations

Author’s Abstract

In the past decade, growing attention has focused on South-South cooperation in climate change mitigation, energy transitions and infrastructure development, especially on the increasing role of BRICS countries in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The questions of appropriate development – reducing the dependencies on carbon-based energy (and mineral consumption) for development – are highly pertinent to climate justice and an equity in partnership.
