“Mission 300” è l'ambiziosa iniziativa lanciata dal Gruppo Banca Mondiale e dalla Banca Africana di Sviluppo, a cui l’Italia ha confermato il suo sostegno, con l'obiettivo di collegare all'elettricità 300 milioni di persone nell'Africa sub-sahariana entro il 2030. L'accesso a un'energia affidabile, economica e sostenibile è essenziale per alimentare uno sviluppo sostenibile in Africa. Mission 300 è quindi un'iniziativa unica nel suo genere che riunisce i governi africani, il settore privato e i partner per lo sviluppo per fornire energia a prezzi accessibili, ampliare l'accesso all'elettricità, aumentare l'efficienza dei servizi, attrarre investimenti privati e migliorare l'integrazione energetica regionale che guida la trasformazione economica. La sessione mira a presentare il programma alle aziende italiane attive in questo settore, al fine di promuovere opportunità di sviluppo commerciale sostenibile e di partenariato e per incoraggiare il contributo del settore privato italiano al programma.

Saranno condivise strategie utili per superare le complessità percepite, per attivare canali di comunicazione efficaci con i buyer ONU e per costruire relazioni durevoli oltre il singolo contratto.Sarà anche un momento di confronto diretto, con sessioni interattive e la possibilità di stabilire contatti utili per aprire nuove prospettive di business a impatto sociale e ambientale positivo.
Experiences from the Startup10 and Tanit - TANdem Italy-Tunisia Projects for Food Security.The conference aims to promote the discussion on the involvement of Italian companies in international cooperation initiatives focused on knowledge transfer and support for the creation and development of startups and micro-enterprises in Africa.

Dialogue, responsibility, innovation: for a cooperation in which no one is excluded.Organized by Save the Children15:00 - 16:00 | Hall 2
We are currently experiencing a particularly delicate period in international relations, in conflict management, in the defense of human rights. It is becoming essential to rethink our responsibilities, each in their own field of intervention, and to undertake paths to implement a development model in which no one is excluded, nor can be left behind, in a world that has sustainability as its central pivot.To achieve this, it is crucial to adopt a participatory approach that involves institutions, civil society organizations, academia, the scientific and technological community, and the private sector in decisions, encouraging the creation of intergenerational partnerships as foreseen by the 2030 Agenda and reaffirmed in the last Future Summit last September in New York.In Italy, the international cooperation system is working to promote innovative models, including through public-private partnerships and new financial instruments, to have even more systemic effectiveness and adequate funding. Companies are increasingly faced with the need to start their economic activities according to models that support sustainable development and therefore the protection of human rights along the entire value chain. Civil society organizations are committed to giving a voice to those who cannot have one, supporting development cooperation initiatives in every area of the world.With this event, Save the Children wants to animate a debate on the importance of defining and then building partnerships with the public and private sectors in the context of international cooperation projects that focus on three key words: dialogue, responsibility, innovation.
