Location: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

Convened by the African Union and the Government of Ethiopia, the Second Africa Climate Summit (ACS-2) will be held in Addis Ababa from 8–10 September 2025. The summit will aim to accelerate climate solutions in response to the worsening impacts of climate change on African economies. ACS-2 will provide a vital platform to unify Africa’s voice in global climate action, promote African-led solutions, and secure bold financial and political commitments.

The event will focus on advancing climate adaptation, mitigation, and green growth, while calling for reforms to global financing systems and encouraging inclusive, multilateral partnerships. ACS-2 will seek to reposition Africa not just as vulnerable to climate impacts, but as a global leader and innovator in climate solutions.

FSD Africa will be represented by Mark Napier, CEO; Evans Osano, Chief Financial Markets Officer; Juliet Munro, Early Stage Finance Director; Dorothy Maseke, Nature Lead; Kelvin Massingham, Adaptation and Resilience Director; Reshma Shah, Carbon Markets Lead; Kevin Munjal, Director, Development Impact and Arjmand Banu Khan, Gender Lead.
