A new year to build climate-smart enterprises, unlock green capital, and create opportunities that last.
Thank you for believing in a circular economy where youth, women, PWDs, and SMEs don't just survive; they thrive.

The Reality Check:
Carbon projects in Kenya currently take 9 months just to collect and verify data. That’s 9 months before communities can access carbon finance.
AI-driven automation can slash this timeline dramatically – turning barriers into gateways for SMEs.

[Pit to Palace Initiative @_PtPInitiative]

Last week at #Latitude59, we explored how AI is transforming carbon markets through the African Registry for Carbon (ARC) – a continent-wide digital framework for tracking and verifying carbon credits.
Hosted by @VerstCarbon with @GIZ_GmbH and Digital Transformation Center Kenya.

This session is part of Latitude59 Kenya 2025, organized with the Digital and Green Innovation Action (DGI), a #TeamEurope initiative advancing the #TwinTransition.
