We are the Africa Common Transitions Agenda (ACTA).

The Africa Common Transitions Agenda (ACTA) advances Africa’s shift to a resilient, sustainable, and prosperous future.

By aligning national priorities with global climate and development goals, ACTA positions Africa as a leader in clean energy, climate action, and inclusive growth—ensuring the continent charts its own path in the global transition.

We work to ensure African voices shape decisions and narratives that impact the continent’s future at every level and forum.

Our approach is built on three pillars: strengthening civil society, advancing African-led research, and fostering thought leadership—empowering Africa to lead and contribute meaningfully to global decisions.

Building Popular Support

Building Popular Support

We believe that lasting systemic change requires a deep and broad base of public support particularly from communities that are most affected by socio-economic inequality and climate marginalisation. We work to democratise climate discourse and ensure that the call for a just transition is rooted in the aspirations and lived realities of African people.
