Countries across Africa are facing a perfect storm: armed conflicts, rising food and energy insecurity, skyrocketing inflation and debt, shrinking fiscal space, and mounting climate catastrophes.
非洲各国正面临多重危机叠加交织的困境:武装冲突频发,粮食和能源不安全状况恶化,通货膨胀和债务飙升,财政空间萎缩,气候灾难加剧。
Yet despite these challenges, Africa includes some of the world's fastest growing economies with the potential to lead in the global energy transition
不过,尽管存在这些挑战,非洲仍有世界上增长最快、有潜力引领全球能源转型的部分经济体。
Strengthened public-private partnerships and multilateral cooperation are needed to advance inclusive, resilient, and sustainable industrial development in Africa.
需要加强公私伙伴关系和多边合作,推动非洲实现包容、有韧性、可持续的工业发展。
We must work collectively to boost entrepreneurship, harness the potential of new technologies, expand opportunities for youth, women and girls, build climate resilience, and foster competitiveness and trade.
我们必须齐心协力促进创业,发挥好新技术的潜力,为青年、妇女和女童增加机会,提高气候韧性,提升竞争力和贸易水平。
We must also work together to realize the objectives of the African Continental Free Trade Area, the African Union's Agenda 2063, and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
我们还须共同努力,实现非洲大陆自由贸易区、非洲联盟《2063年议程》和《2030年可持续发展议程》的目标。
On Africa Industrialization Day, let us join forces to build a more sustainable, peaceful, and prosperous continent for all.
值此非洲工业化日之际,让我们携手共建更可持续、更加和平、更加繁荣、人人受益的非洲大陆。
