The African Climate Action Partnership (AfCAP) connects representatives from governments, civil society and the private sector fostering collaboration to advance low emission development strategies across the continent. Under the umbrella of the Global Climate Action Partnership (GCAP) and alongside the other regional platforms in Asia and Latin America & the Caribbean, AfCAP serves as a unique convening platform for peer learning, enabling direct engagement between decision-makers and technical experts to inform climate policy and practice.
With a broad membership across Africa, AfCAP amplifies African expertise, empowering experts across the continent to drive climate action. Through strengthening tailored and evidence-based climate ambitions, AfCAP works towards a prosperous, climate-resilient Africa, with inclusive growth, for the welfare of current and future generations.
The objectives of the African Climate Action Partnership are threefold:
- Build networks that promote African-led climate action through sharing of knowledge and experience between countries and institutions.
- Cultivate and support climate champions across Africa to drive locally relevant climate action.
- Enhance the capacity of governments, institutions, and experts to design and implement data-driven climate actions.
