• Overview

    The Regional Green Economy Forum (RGEF) 2025 brings together leaders, policymakers, experts, and innovators from across Africa to accelerate the transition of cities toward carbon neutrality. This flagship regional initiative, organized by the World Green Economy Organization (WGEO) in collaboration with government and regional partners, is strategically aligned with the Cities Carbon Neutral Program, aiming to build momentum toward WGES 2025 and COP30.
