Second Africa Climate Summit

More About This Event

Mark your calendars for something big. This September, Addis Ababa will be at the very center of the global conversation on climate change. World leaders, activists, investors, and innovators are descending on our city for the Second Africa Climate Summit (ACS2).

But this isn't just another conference. This is Africa's moment to step onto the world stage and lead. If you're curious about what's happening at the Africa Union headquarters and how it affects all of us, here’s your inside scoop.

What's It All About?

Think of it as a massive, high-stakes strategy session for our planet's future, with Africa driving the agenda.

The core idea? It's time for climate justice. African nations have felt the brutal impacts of climate change the most, despite contributing to it the least. This summit is about changing that story. It’s about moving from just talking about problems to financing and implementing African-led solutions.

The goal is to create a unified African voice to influence major global negotiations later this year, pushing for a fairer system where funding and green technology actually reach the communities that need them most.
