As a first of its kind, the Technology Innovation Agency (TIA) of South Africa will host the Climate Innovation for Africa workshop to bring Africa to the table and give it a voice at the World Climate Summit 2023. This will be a showcase of African ideas and innovation in the global climate space. It will be an opportunity for catalyzing an African climate investment coalition between the global north and the global south and to strengthen African partnerships that share a common goal for a sustainable Africa. Also, to be discussed will be enhancing approaches and innovations for increasing inclusion through finance and/or technology to address climate challenges in Africa.
