Digital Transformation and Informal Innovation in Africa: Reframing STI Policy for Inclusive Circular Economy Transitions

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid increasing environmental and economic pressures, Africa's transition to a circular economy (CE) presents a vital pathway to inclusive, low‐carbon development. Yet, how digital transformation, informal innovation, and science, technology, and innovation (STI) policy readiness shape CE outcomes remains underexplored.

Hydroxyl Self‐Trapping Strategy Enables Electrocatalysis at Ampere‐Level Current Densities: Kinetics‐Driven Lattice Oxygen Activation for Cl−‐Rich Alkaline Water Electrooxidation

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
This study designs a CrOx‐engineered Ni‐based catalyst enabling efficient and stable seawater electrolysis. The catalyst utilizes a dynamic interfacial barrier that selectively adsorbs OH− to repel Cl− corrosion while activating lattice oxygen‐mediated pathways.
