Energy & Policy: FutureCoal expands its Africa chapter, with Mike Teke urging an end to fragmented coal voices and calling for coordinated action on energy security, technology, investment and industrial growth across the continent. Mining & Jobs: Petra Diamonds workers at the Finsch mine downed tools over salary fears after the company put the mine into business rescue, raising concerns for jobs and service payments. Diamonds Market Watch: De Beers CEO Al Cook says the long-running sale could be completed in weeks, with Botswana and other diamond nations seeking equity stakes; separate research also points to renewed US demand for natural diamonds driven by Gen Z. Health & Leadership: Merck Foundation’s Africa Asia Luminary brought together First Ladies and health experts to push better healthcare capacity, highlighting practical clinic and patient-care outcomes. Wildlife Conservation: Tanzania’s latest wildlife census reports elephants at 66,714 (down from 134,000 in 2005), while also ranking Tanzania top for lions and buffaloes—useful context for regional conservation planning. Education & Tech Ecosystems: Botho University’s labs and innovation hubs were visited by a government minister as part of a value-for-money push, while Montclair State University joined a Future Universities Alliance Innovation Sandbox cohort that includes Botswana.
