‘Agriculture For Humanity’, A Youth-Led Non-For Profit Initiative aimed at Transforming Communities! One Green Thumb at a Time! 🪴🌍♻️

[African Union ECOSOCC @AU_ECOSOCC]

#Climate impacts are rising across #Africa, yet the resources meant to support those on the frontlines rarely reach them in a reliable or meaningful way. Our new position paper, developed by the Civil Society Working Group on Climate Change, examines why this gap persists and what African states should push for.

It focuses on 3️⃣ priorities:

1️⃣ #ClimateReparations:
High-emitting countries have legal duties to support those already experiencing climate harm.

2️⃣ #HumanRights in #ClimateFinance:
Communities living with climate impacts should have a real say in how funds are designed and used.

3️⃣ Gender responsive finance:
Women’s groups receive only a tiny share of climate funding even though they carry much of the burden of climate stress.

These issues will define whether climate finance reaches the people who need it most.

[African Union ECOSOCC @AU_ECOSOCC]

We're now on the session on #ClimateFinance, examining how African civil society can shape fair and effective funding for #ClimateAction!

Speakers Andrew Letting of @TIKenya, Dr. Amanda Mugadza of @MidlandsState, and @KalariEmmanuel1 of @YouthBridge2 discuss how #climate finance must be transparent, accessible, and responsive to the needs of vulnerable communities.

They emphasize translating climate finance commitments into real outcomes, advancing #ClimateReparations and #gender #justice, and ensuring funds reach those most affected.

@That_Agronomist of @Ag4Humanity moderates.

Happening soon: African civil society is coming together to strengthen its voice in global climate governance!

On 10 November 2025, we'll host a virtual soft launch of our new climate knowledge products, created to guide Africa’s engagement at #COP30!

Developed by the @AU_ECOSOCC Civil Society Working Group on Climate Change, the collection includes:

📗 The Civil Society Roadmap to Belém
📘 Position Papers on climate finance, adaptation, and mitigation

These resources bring together the expertise of African researchers and civil society groups working on the frontlines of the climate crisis. They aim to ensure that Africa’s experiences and priorities inform global climate decisions.

Join the conversation and explore how these knowledge products can support African-led climate action!
