Description: The African continent continues to be massively affected by climate change, driving its countries to be ever more sensitive to vital poverty-related needs like access to energy, water, and agriculture.

This means that many challenges await Africa given that the continent has 9 out of the top 10 countries with the highest poverty rate in the world.
