It will also bring together representatives from government, business, financial institutions, and civil society to explore practical solutions for building a cleaner, fairer, and more resilient continent.
ACF 2025 will explore how African countries can bridge the transition gap by aligning local needs with international opportunities in finance, innovation, and trade.
The platforms aim to move the conversation beyond pledges, targeting real projects that cut emissions, improve energy access, and drive job creation.
Since its debut in 2023, the Africa Climate Forum has evolved into one of the continent’s most respected platforms for climate action.
ACF 2025 is expected to highlight how Africa can leap beyond transition gaps—transforming challenges into home-grown, scalable solutions that contribute to a greener global economy.
