Last update: an hour agoBiodiversity Funding in Chad: The UK’s Darwin Initiative is cutting eligibility for biodiversity projects in 89 countries, including Chad, raising alarms that local wildlife and habitat work will stall just as ecosystems face mounting pressure. Solar for Africa: China exported a record 68 GW of solar components in March 2026, with African demand jumping—Nigeria’s imports surged 519% to 1.2 GW—fuelled by higher fossil-fuel prices and the end of some Chinese clean-tech rebates. Food Security in Chad: The World Food Programme launched resilience projects across Chad (Logone Oriental, Sila, Ouaddai, Guera, Kanem, Barh-El-Gazel, Lac, Wadi Fira), backing small producers with seeds, land access, hydro-agriculture, cooperatives, climate-smart farming, and land restoration. Conservation Governance: African Parks faces renewed scrutiny after admissions of serious human rights abuses in Congo parks; in Chad, its mandate was temporarily suspended over fraud, mismanagement, and unexplained wildlife deaths. Desertification Watch: A new look at desertification highlights the Sahara’s southward creep into the Sahel, with UN data saying much of the world’s drylands are getting permanently drier.
