Africa Carbon Forum 2018 - UNCTAD's contribution to the Regional Technical Expert Meeting: Efficiency in Industry

​The 10th Africa Carbon Forum (ACF) will focus on how engagement between State and non‐State actors can be further strengthened in the key sectors for Africa (energy, agriculture and human settlements), including the role of future carbon markets to achieve enhanced climate action, towards the goals of sustainable development.

• Practical examples of policies, initiatives and actions in Africa;
• Barriers and enabling measures for engaging climate action in key sectors;
• Financial instruments and regulatory frameworks;
• Advancing the implementation of climate action; and
• Economic diversification and de-carbonization through circular economy strategies.

With a comprehensive programme of plenary sessions, workshops, a ministerial section, side events and exhibits, this is a one of a kind event in the region.
