Yana Popkostova attended the Dakar International Forum on Peace and Security in Africa, where she moderated a workshop on the impact of demography and climate change in the continent.
The session focused on the following questions:
How can we improve the fight against climate change, the main driver behind migration and other future crises?
How can we harness cultural, social and human dynamics and values to counter insecurity on the continent and new threats?
The impact of population growth on African societies: what strategies can be implemented to meet the aspirations of the young and address structural youth unemployment?
