The report frames economic diversification—supported by agriculture, fisheries, and manufacturing—as essential to sustainable growth and job creation, but emphasizes that the most promising non-oil sectors are highly climate-sensitive. Projected rainfall variability, droughts, floods, and warming threaten agricultural production, fisheries, hydropower, water security, and urban services, with modeling indicating sizable GDP losses without adaptation.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nEASTERN AND  \nSOUTHERN AFRICA  \nANGOLA  \nEXECUTIVE SUMMARY  \n1. Angola’s Climate and Development Challenge  \nAngola’s oil-based economic growth of the past two decades has not delivered inclusive development and is now losing steam. Oil production has declined from a peak of 1.9 million barrels per day (mbpd) in 2008 to 1.2 mbpd in 2022 and is likely to continue to decline gradually in the coming decades, as low-cost reserves are exhausted and the global transition to a low-carbon pathway reduces new investment. Meanwhile, oildriven GDP growth has failed to reduce poverty or build the human and physical capital foundations for sustainable and more diversified economic growth. As of 2018, 32.3 percent of the population was below the national poverty line, and in 2020, Angola ranked 148th out of 191 countries on the Human Development Index. Due to weak growth in the non-oil sectors, as of 2021, oil and gas still contributed 27 percent of GDP, 55 percent of government revenues, and 95 percent of exports, and per capita GNI was just US$1,770, down from $4,830 in 2014.  \nAngola’s development priority is therefore to use the revenues from its dwindling oil wealth to diversify its economy, reducing its dependency on the petroleum industry and creating opportunities for sustainable growth and job creation. Recognizing this challenge, Angola’s President has stated that diversification is“a matter of life or death” for the country, and the next National Development Plan (2023–2027) features economic diversification as one of three focus areas (along with human capital and infrastructure) . Angola’s 2018 Systematic Country Diagnostic identifies agribusiness, fisheries, and manufacturing as potential (nonextractive) industries where Angola’s economy could diversify and create more employment opportunities. The potential of these sectors is also acknowledged as part of the most recent Country Private Sector Diagnostic by the International Finance Corporation (IFC) . Agriculture in particular has substantial potential to positively impact growth, economic diversification, employment, and social inclusion, but it can only thrive if productivity can be significantly increased.  \nAchieving climate resilience is inextricably linked to the success of Angola’s economic diversification, as most promising non-extractive sectors are highly climate-sensitive and already under increased stress from climate variability. Projected increases in rainfall variability and extremes have serious implications for agriculture, fisheries, energy production, and cities. Unreliable water availability and increased extreme events are expected to pose growing challenges to agricultural production. Direct economic losses in  \nAngola Country Climate and Development Report  1  \nagriculture from droughts may rise from as much as $100 million per year nationwide today, to more than $700 million per year by 2100. The productivity of fisheries is also projected to decline, with the maximum catch potential expected to decrease by 43.7 percent by 2050 and 64.0 percent by 2100. With southern and southeastern Angola projected to become dryer, hydropower production on the Kunene River, for example, is expected to decline. Meanwhile, in urban areas—where two-thirds of Angolans already live, and a majority of jobs are—climate change is likely to exacerbate water scarcity, bring more intense storms and coastal flooding, and increase the risks associated with inadequate sanitation.  \nClimate change is not just a future threat, but already a reality in Angola. A state-of-the-art climate impact assessment conducted for this CCDR confirmed that warming has accelerated significantly in recent years. The annual mean temperature has increased by 1.4.°C since 1951 and is expected to keep rising. Southern Angola has been the hardest hit, and experienced a severe and pro","cbCaitlow6rpLUGc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitlow6rpLUGc","pdf",645284,4,1,11,"English","en",105,"# Angola’s Climate and Development Challenge\n## Economic dependency and development outcomes\n## Diversification and growth priorities\n## Climate resilience link to diversification\n## Current impacts and projected risks\n## Economic modeling and potential losses","[{\"question\":\"Why does the report emphasize diversification for Angola’s development?\",\"answer\":\"Angola’s oil-based growth has not produced inclusive development and is slowing as production declines.
