Climate Philanthropy in Africa

Philanthropic support to climate change represented less than 2% of the total philanthropic support in 2020. Of this, less than 3% was disbursed in Africa. 

Our Funders

For the continent most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and least capacitated to adapt to such, Africa's support falls woefully short.

Therefore, the philanthropic community has a critical role to play not only in helping to fill the finance gap left by developed economies, but also in helping to shape a new narrative around climate and development through its investments.

As a re-granter, we provide a mechanism through which philanthropies can contribute to Africa’s efforts to address climate change. We work closely with numerous philanthropic organisations and partners to strategically identify opportunities that will both support initiatives and unlock new opportunities for sustainable development in Africa.

We are grateful to our funders and partners for their generous support.
