Key policy recommendations

The overarching goal of a JST framework for Africa is to improve human well-being today without jeopardizing the well-being of future generations. This is to be achieved by fulfilling basic needs, creating productive jobs and sustainable livelihoods, and establishing a healthy ecosystem. Such a framework recognizes—as the driving forces for a JST—low-carbon industrialization that is inclusive, creates decent jobs, is environmentally sustainable while pursuing sustainable agroecosystems.
