A Year of Breakthrough Dialogue: How the African-Russian Energy Association
Strengthened Bridges between Russia and Africa in 2025
The year is drawing to a close, and for our community, it has been a time of active movement, vibrant dialogue, and laying the foundation for future projects. The African-Russian Energy Association (AREA) has worked on a variety of fronts — from energy strategies to humanitarian bridges. Let's recall the key moments together.
Education and Personnel: Investing in Tomorrow
We understand that technology is powerless without specialists. Therefore, in 2025, we emphasized the need for personnel training and knowledge sharing:
We gave a lecture to students at Belmont University (USA) on the polycentric world and the role of Africa.
We participated in roundtable discussions on education reform and energy sector training, reminding everyone that a third of energy industry executives in Africa are graduates of Soviet/Russian universities.
Media Bridge: Speaking the Same Language
For projects to be successful, they need to be communicated effectively. We actively worked on this information bridge:
• Held a roundtable discussion, "Information Bridge: Russia – Africa," in the State Duma with the participation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, members of parliament, leading media outlets, and African journalists.
• Emphasized that PR, GR, and working with the media are essential for any serious project.
Dialogue at all levels: from the State Duma to expert clubs
AREA became a platform for meaningful discussion:
• Participated in the "Russia-Africa" Humanitarian Forum in the State Duma.
• Discussed humanitarian policy practices with the Gorchakov Fund.
• Analyzed barriers to business and sought models that combine Russian technology with local production in Africa.
Research and Cooperation
We analyzed over 20 energy projects.
Established cooperation with four new countries.
We don't just talk about cooperation—we create working tools for it, teach, advise, and act.
May our joint projects gain momentum in the year 2026, may our dialogue become even more productive, and may the energy of cooperation bring light and development to all our countries!
