GLF Africa 2024: Greening the African Horizon
Can Africa show the world a sustainable way forward?
The climate crisis is taking a toll on Africa – and especially on rural communities that depend on natural resources for their livelihoods.
How should the continent respond to these challenges, and what lessons can it teach the rest of humanity?
On 17 September, join us for a global conference to find out how Africa can navigate the future of three shifting landscapes: forests and savannas, drylands, and freshwater and oceans.
In Nairobi, Kenya, or online from wherever you are, you’ll be joined by thousands of people gathered to forge a prosperous and sustainable future for Africa’s land- and seascapes, powered by local solutions.

The Formidable Rise In Solar Energy Efficiency
Solar energy is growing at a formidable pace, fueled by government policies, decreasing costs and constant innovations. One of those driving forces has been a surge in efficiency. New technologies in energy storage, advanced photovoltaic materials, and smart grid technologies, to name a few, are dramatically increasing solar energy output, paving the way for a brighter future. Join us on September 17th at 2pm ET for an exciting webinar where we’ll explore some of the solutions behind this rise in efficiency, and take a look at their environmental impact. We’ll hear from industry experts, from Boundless Research Analyst Reagan Cerci, and from one of those trailblazers, Sol Clarity CTO and Co-Founder, Annie Bernard, with examples on solar cleaning and their Electrodynamic Screen technology. This cutting-edge, water-free, and automated dust removal solution not only maximizes solar energy yield but also saves billions of liters of water annually. Register now and join us in learning how those innovations are paving the way for a much more efficient solar energy future.Time: 2:00 – 2:45 EDT- Tags

Demystifying Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Nonprofits
The nonprofit industry is at an inflection point. Nonprofit fundraisers are already using AI tools, but leaders are searching for the right path forward. According to the 2024 Work Trend Index Annual Report from Microsoft and LinkedIn, the use of generative AI has nearly doubled in the last six months alone and 75% of respondents said they use AI tools to help them save time, focus on building relationships rather than administrative tasks, and enjoy their work more.
Many nonprofits lack clear guidance on AI usage meaning the organization misses out on the opportunity to implement AI at scale and the usage of free, open-data model AI tools opens the organization up to data security problems.
This free webinar is essential learning for every nonprofit employee, regardless of title. We’ll preview some of the ways organizations are incorporating AI tools into the software they already use. SylogistMission’s staff will help you to:
- Understand the power of AI tools for nonprofits
- Preview real-world applications to increase transparency & demonstrate impact
- Learn about the magic of natural language
Time: 1 pm ET / 10 am PT (1 hour)
