Summary
The African Climate Foundation (ACF) has launched a 2026-30 strategy emphasizing that Africa's climate transition must be driven from within the continent, rather than relying on externally designed solutions. Amid the looming threat of a possible "super El Niño," the strategy focuses on four key areas: clean energy access, climate resilience, green industrialisation, and strengthening African influence in global climate finance. Executive director Saliem Fekir stated the ACF's role is to provide logistical support to African-led climate initiatives.
