"#Portugal has signed an agreement to swap #CapeVerde's debt for investments in an environmental and climate fund that is being established by the archipelago nation off West #Africa's coast... Such "debt-for-nature" swap deals are emerging in other countries and are part of attempts to resolve a dilemma faced by world leaders on how and who will foot the bill for actions taken to reduce the impact of #ClimateChange

#neuhier Hi everyone, I‘m a historian working on #media #history and, currently, the history of informal transport in African cities. Beyond that I‘m interested in #theory, especially theories of #ideology and #work, and #Marxist theory especially from #Africa. I‘m not yet sure what to do with this account and since I want to do something different from Twitter, will post reflections on my current theoretical obsessions.

A global business intelligence, Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) has said Lagos, the Nigeria's commercial capital city is the world's second least liveable urban area.

EIU ranked Lagos 171 out of 172 countries in the list of most liveable cities in the world for the first quarter of 2022, according to the latest 2022 Global Liveability Index.

This report makes the Nigerian best city the worst in #Africa as Damascus (Syria) and Tripoli (Libya) continue to anguish at the bottom of the list along with Lagos (Nigeria) as they face social unrest, terrorism and conflict.

"The least liveable cities were Damascus in Syria, Lagos in #Nigeria, Tripoli in Libya, Algiers in #Algeria and Karachi in #Pakistan, which scored 30.7, 32.2, 34.2, 37.0 and 37.5 respectively.
