Africa is on the frontline of climate change, facing unprecedented challenges to food security, water access, biodiversity, livelihoods, and energy systems. Yet, it also presents some of the most promising opportunities for green growth and climate-resilient investments.

Across the continent, innovators are pioneering transformative solutions in climate-smart agribusiness, renewable energy, waste and water management, and nature-based solutions. These sectors are critical not only for achieving climate adaptation and mitigation goals, but also for driving job creation, inclusive economic growth, and sustainable livelihoods.

However, despite this potential, climate finance flows into Africa remain limited, and most enterprises face persistent barriers such as inadequate financing, fragmented policies, and lack of investor linkages.
