We are a public benefit organisation working to unlock Africa’s potential as a global hub for climate action, underpinned by a new climate-smart model of economic growth and inclusive livelihoods.
Our work is informed by the realisation that Africa’s demographics, growth trajectory and natural resource endowments, coupled with its extremely low levels of current carbon emissions, enable the continent to aspire to not just net-zero but a substantial net-negative carbon footprint sooner than any other part of the world. Climate action opens a path for Africa to become a leading player in avoiding a global climate catastrophe whilst growing to middle-income status with dignified livelihoods for all.
