Scaling African Carbon Markets for Green Development
The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) is an alliance whose main mission is to support developing countries to be able to move towards clean energy, a pro-growth model that ensures universal energy access, and opening up a new era of inclusive economic growth. This enables the global community to meet the critical climate goals as of 2030. The alliance comprises philanthropists, local entrepreneurs, governments, and technology, policy, and financing partners, who are all working together to reduce carbon emissions, expand energy access and enable sustainable livelihoods in Africa.
Since 1913, the aim of the Rockefeller foundation has been to promote the wellbeing of humanity and make opportunities universally available for all and sustainable as well.
SEforALL is an international organisation that partners together with the United Nations and government leaders, the private sector financial intermediaries, the civil society as well as philanthropists, in order to drive fast action towards achieving SDG7- access to affordable, reliable, sustainable sustainable and modern energy for all by 2030 – in line with the Paris Agreement on climate.
The UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) is an organisation mandated to promote inclusive and sustainable development in support of accelerating the economic diversification as well as structural transformation of Africa. It was established by ECOSOC (Economic and Social Council) in 1958 as one of the UN's 5 regional commissions. UNECA's mission is to deliver ideas and actions for an empowered, inclusive and transformed Africa. Its overall objective is to promote inclusive and sustainable development in support of accelerating the economic diversification and structural transformation of Africa, in line with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want.
In order to connect the work of governments with the many voluntary and collaborative actions taken by cities, regions, businesses and investors, nations decided to appoint two High Level Champions. The key mandate of these high-level champions is to enhance ambition and strengthen the engagement of non-state actors in supporting Parties, and work with the Marrakech Partnership, to deliver the goals of the Paris Agreement. Dr. Mahmoud Mohieldin and Her Excellency Ms. Razan Al Mubarak are the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions for COP27 and COP28.
