President Ramaphosa arrived in the UK on Monday and will officially be welcomed by His Majesty the King at a ceremony at Buckingham Palace today. Later in the day, the President is expected to address a Joint Sitting of the Houses of Parliament, before being hosted in a State Banquet at Buckingham Palace.

The Minister was addressing a virtual media briefing on the outcomes of the recent United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Sharm el-Sheikh Conference of Parties (COP 27). “COP27 has provided the momentum to reform the Multilateral Development Banks and International Financial institutions, and we expected the shareholders of these institutions to take decisive action to scale up climate finance in 2023 and make their institutions fit for purpose,” Min. Creecy said.

The objective of these awards is to recognise extraordinary South African women leaders, across various sectors, who inspire many and make a difference to the greater South African and global community.
