Our theme for the month of October is
How should Africa respond to a climate crisis it didn't create?

This week, we focus on how African countries can leverage the continent’s rich resources to respond to the climate crisis. With its vast reserves of minerals and renewable energy potential, Africa holds the key to building climate resilience while promoting sustainable development. We will explore how these resources can be responsibly used to address climate challenges while supporting the continent’s growth.

This month's Policy Paper will focus on how Africa can adapt to and mitigate the impacts of a crisis that threatens its development and prosperity. Join us in this collaborative endeavor as we discuss solutions that build resilience, advocate for climate justice and secure a sustainable future for Africa. we aim to highlight the importance of local involvement in crafting sustainable, homegrown solutions to safeguard Africa’s future.

Our Principles - Uphold Trust & Transparency

Unblemished transparency and the bond of solid trust are the bedrock of our activities and operations. With everything we have and are; with all we can summon we use the light of transparency to expel the darkness of corruption wherever it may be found on our land and in our operations.
