Identifying, Unlocking and Supporting Climate Development Opportunities in Africa

By layering climate expertise on traditional developmental questions, we support and amplify the voice and agency of an independent and multi-disciplinary African-led climate and development movement.

Developing, Supporting, Elevating and Catalysing Climate Action in Africa.

We unlock and support development opportunities in climate action in Africa. We accomplish this through a combination of grant making, fellowships, transformational research, technical assistance, coalition building and targeted advocacy, and multi-stakeholder convenings.

Climate change responses require a whole of economy approach. We work in and across sectors that are key to unlocking long-term inclusive growth and development in Africa:

Energy Access and Just Transitions

Sustainable Land-Use and Agriculture

Urban Environments

Climate Action Focus Areas
