Low Emission Development Strategies in Africa

The Africa LEDS Partnership (AfLP) brings together representatives from governments, civil society and the private sector working to advance low emission development strategies across the continent. Under the umbrella of the Global Climate Action Partnership (GCAP) and alongside the other regional platforms in Asia and Latin America & the Caribbean, the AfLP works to address LEDS priorities and challenges specific to Africa through peer-to-peer learning and engagement.

With a broad membership from over 39 countries across the continent, the AfLP works towards a prosperous, climate-resilient Africa, with inclusive green growth, for the welfare of current and future generations. It aims to promote low-carbon, climate-resilient development in support of poverty alleviation, job creation and environmental management in Africa.
