Who is The Pan-African Climate Justice Alliance (PACJA)? We are a coalition of over 2,000 organizations from 54 African nations! We aim to address climate and environmental challenges through a people-centered, rights-based approach.
From grassroots movements to policy & advocacy, PACJA brings together communities including smallholder farmers, indigenous peoples, pastoralists, and women on the frontlines of the climate crisis.
Currently, PACJA is implementing a variety of projects that traverse direct programming, policy and advocacy, sub-granting and capacity building, mainly focusing on the most vulnerable groups which are “unreachable” in traditional development paradigms lead and co-lead key projects like African Activists on Climate Justice (AACJ),@aacjinaction Galvanizing and Unifying Africa's Action for Resilient Development ( GUARD AFRICA), Strengthening Civil Society for a Just and Sustainable Urbanization (SCEJU) and initiatives such as The Nairobi Summer School on Climate Justice (NSSCJ). @Summer_School1 , African Climate Change, Environmental Report Awards (ACCER) Tutegrated African Coalition for Sustainable Energy and Access @acsea_54 @cjifa_ pacja.org/initiatives/
With support from @DutchMFA , @Sida , the European Union @EU_Commission, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation @gatesfoundation, only to mention but a few we work across Africa to amplify the voices of the most vulnerable and influence global policy through our Designated National Platforms; pacja.org/our-national-platf…

The ocean absorbs 90% of excess heat from emissions and ~25% of CO2. At Nairobi Convention COP12 today, PACJA co-hosted a side event with WWF and SWIOTUNA on the ocean-climate nexus for Africa. A thread. 🧵
Ocean belongs in Africa's climate agenda, not beside it. At Nairobi Convention COP12 (7 Oct), PACJA's Charles Mwangi joins @WWF & @swiotuna to build shared CSO priorities on ocean-climate linkages ahead of COP31 & COP32.

More than 3/4 of NDCs reviewed at the UNFCCC Ocean Dialogue in Bonn now include an ocean-based measure. But high-impact mitigation — green shipping, fossil fuel phase-out, ocean renewables — is only ~12% of those commitments.
The ask heading into COP31 and COP32: finance that reaches frontline coastal communities directly, African science capacity built to match the problem, and ocean governance treated as a justice question.

More than 3/4 of NDCs reviewed at the UNFCCC Ocean Dialogue in Bonn (June 2026) now include an ocean-based measure. But high-impact mitigation — green shipping, fossil fuel phase-out, ocean renewables — is only ~12% of those commitments.
The ask heading into COP31 and COP32: finance that reaches frontline coastal communities directly, African science and data capacity built to match the problem, and ocean governance treated as a justice question, not an afterthought

PACJA and Brazil's @IPAM_Amazonia convened African stakeholders with the COP30 Presidency team to discuss the Transition Away from Fossil Fuels (TAFF) Roadmap — pressing for clarity on how it stays inclusive of African priorities ahead of COP31.

Hon. Aimée Marie Ange Tumukunde, Member of the Parliament in Rwnada. Part of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Cooperation and Security in Rwanda Parliament. Representative of Rwanda at @AfrikParliament
She delivered the vote of thanks, underscoring the weight of the two days' discussions.
A model law is only as strong as the parliaments willing to adopt it. The work now moves from Nairobi's drafting table into 54 national legislatures.
#PACJA #PanAfricanParliament #ACLI
A two-day technical consultation on @AfrikParliament's draft Model Law on Climate Change concluded in Nairobi on 29 September, convened by PAP in partnership with PACJA through the African Climate Legislative Initiative (ACLI). A thread on what came out of it. 🧵
The workshop brought together parliamentarians, legal experts, government representatives, civil society organisations, UN agencies and regional institutions to refine a flexible legislative framework African States can adapt to their own contexts.
