At #LCAW2026, GAYO & Goals House posed a key question: Are Africa's climate solutions and finance systems ready to trust and fund the communities building resilience? Power must shift closer to the people.

Global ocean temperatures hit a record high for June, according to the latest Copernicus Climate Change Service & @CMEMS_EU data.
Over the past three years, oceans outside the polar regions have been 0.35–0.73°C warmer than average. El Niño pushed June to a new record.

Today, we reaffirm our commitment to grow 10 million trees by 2030. One tree at a time, let’s preserve our environment for the future communities. Join us in making the future greener. #NCBAChangeTheStory #NCBAWED2026 #NowForClimate
Beyond natural resources, Africa's youth are its greatest asset for #ClimateAction and #GreenTransition. Yet youth-led organizations receive less than 1% of climate finance. Financing #ClimateAction without financing youth misses a powerful driver to #Resilience

“Working with communities has shown that unless finance is inclusive, solutions are locally led, and processes are transparent and responsive to local needs, very limited outcomes can be expected.”hivos.org/blog/the-subsidiar…

For #COP30 to succeed, #SB62 must include community-lived experiences in the Just Transition Work Programme, the Gender Action Plan and the GGA indicators. No success expected w/o inclusive finance, locally led solutions & transparent processes. More 👇🏽

📢 Mark your calendars!
Tomorrow - 12 May - we will launch our flagship #StateOfClimate in
Africa 2024 report!
In for an analysis of what #TradeTariffs may mean to climate action in the global south? Could we see a heightened fossil fuels exploration to meet energy demands? Could we see an increase in regional power pools to reduce production costs? Any thought? – at Nairobi, Kenya

Excited to host a consultative meeting together with Friedrick Ebert Stiftung and Natural Justice to reflect on #COP29 outcomes and gear up for Pre-Sixty Second session of the Subsidiary Bodies #SB62. The goal is to assess progress, identify gaps, and shape Africa’s agenda. 🌍🌱

#Climatechange-induced #droughts☀️in Zambia have led to health and social crises one might not immediately think of: diseases, school dropouts, child marriages, and the exploitation of vulnerable youth. What to do? 👇🏽

We argue that debt relief, increased grant-based financing for #climateaction, private sector investment, robust governance and transparent mechanisms are needed to ensure #COP29’s finance outcomes do not leave the Global South behind. 👇🏽
