Attracting finance and investment for the energy transition in Malawi: Stakeholders’ meeting

As part of the technical assistance project focused on attracting finance and investment for Africa’s energy transition, UN Trade and Development, through its Investment Promotion and Facilitation Programme, is organizing a stakeholders’ meeting in Lilongwe, on 24 September 2024. This collaborative effort with the Malawi Investment and Trade Centre (MITC) aims to identify key challenges and opportunities for international investment to support Malawi’s energy transition plans. The outcomes of this meeting will contribute to the development of a strategy that promotes and facilitates international finance and investment in sustainable energy related projects.

The Development Account “Attracting finance and investment for the energy transition in Africa” targets five countries—Ethiopia, Malawi, Namibia, Seychelles, and Tanzania. The goal is to enhance their capacity to promote and facilitate international finance and investments in projects that accelerate the energy transition, improving access to and affordability of sustainable energy.
