AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Critical Minerals & Conflict: WTO chief Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala warned that soaring demand for lithium, cobalt, nickel and rare earths is fueling violence and poverty, with illegal mining and smuggling linked to armed groups in eastern Congo. Digital Entrepreneurship for Women (Congo): UN ECA launched a four-year initiative to boost women’s digital entrepreneurship in Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Namibia, and the Republic of Congo—training 1,000+ women in digital literacy and financial skills, plus policy workshops for 200+ officials. Health Tech & Trials (Ebola): WHO is enrolling its first treatment trial for the Bundibugyo Ebola strain in Congo, testing MBP-134 and remdesivir to improve survival where approved options are scarce. Biodiversity Discovery (Congo Basin): Scientists confirmed a new monkey species, the Likweli colobus (Colobus congoensis), using multi-year sightings and DNA work, highlighting how much remains unknown in Congo Basin forests. AI Governance: Indonesia joined WAICO as a founding member to help shape global AI rules—safe, inclusive, and human-centered—at a time when AI is becoming a geopolitical battleground.
