As the world prepares for COP30 in Brazil and the upcoming G20 Summit, this High-Level Dialogue brings together policymakers, researchers, civil society, and community leaders to reflect on the outcomes of the Africa Climate Summit and chart Africa’s collective priorities for global climate negotiations.
Building on the momentum from the Nairobi Declaration, the dialogue will explore how Africa can accelerate a just and inclusive transition, one that is community-driven, amplifies grassroots voices, and ensures that climate finance, renewable energy, and green jobs reach those most affected by climate change.
Through interactive discussions, participants will share insights and strategies to position Africa as a leader in climate action, while advocating for equitable global governance within the COP and G20 processes.
Key themes include:
- Africa’s priorities and unified voice ahead of COP30 and the G20.
- Reflections and lessons from the Africa Climate Summit.
- Financing mechanisms for a just and inclusive transition.
- Strengthening community-led and locally owned climate solutions.
- Building partnerships for green industrialisation and resilient livelihoods.
