Ajayi, who stated this at a two-day German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) Alumnae workshop at Babcock University, highlighted the need for strategic research on climate change drivers, such as consumption, production, distribution and degradation.

He urged women to play a more significant role in citizen communication and advocacy, leveraging their potential to end poverty.

He praised the organisers for advocating climate change mitigation and research, encouraging them to expand their advocacy group and focus on impactful research.

The workshop, themed, “From Vulnerability to Resilience: Empowering Women to Address Climate Change through Sustainable Development Goals,” aimed to foster collaboration, knowledge sharing and publication in climate change mitigation among others.

“Let us work together to harness our collective expertise and creativity to drive meaningful change,” she added.
