IEA too succumbs to Africa growing allure
Jarrett |
While only time will tell if
they’re indeed right or not, one thing is certain: Africa is gradually
witnessing a turnaround in its fortunes.
Cognizant of this, the
International Energy Agency (IEA) (https://www.IEA.org/) has hired Maximilian
Jarrett as its first Africa programme manager to help expand its reach and
coordinate its work as it deepens its engagement across the continent.
Jarrett brings 30 years of
experience in the fields of international economic affairs, media production
and strategic communications. He most recently served as the director-in-charge
of the Geneva-based Africa Progress Panel which was chaired by the late Kofi
Annan, the Nobel Peace Prize laureate and former UN Secretary General.
Prior to his role with the Africa
Progress Panel, Jarrett spent over a decade working with the United Nations in
Africa, having started his career in 1990 as a programme presenter and senior
producer with the BBC World Service.
