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

We are now focusing on the impact of climate change on African urbanisation and megacities. With rapid urban growth and increasing climate-related disasters, African cities are under immense pressure. We will explore how the continent’s megacities, such as Lagos and Cairo, can adapt to these challenges through sustainable urban planning and climate-resilient infrastructure.

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.
