The third quarter of 2025 has been one of new beginnings for the African Climate Alliance team. Three firsts stand out. We welcomed our new director, Celiwe Shivambu. We hosted the first-ever Johannesburg Climate Week. And, expanding beyond Cape Town and Johannesburg, several of our African Climate Alliance ambassadors hosted 8 Climate Week events in Malawi, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Kenya, and Nigeria.

The second quarter of the year was all about strengthening our changemaking networks – meeting people where they are at, exchanging stories and ideas, and committing to shared visions.

Living through a time where the climate justice movement feels more polarised than ever before, we wanted to make sure that we weren’t just continuing with business-as-usual in work, but rather only committing ourselves to work, projects, and campaigns that felt truly impactful. We even questioned what true impact means to us. Here’s a closer look at what we have been up to in January, February, and March.

This year has been a monumental one in the five-year history of the African Climate Alliance. If we could sum up the year in one word it would be: movement-building. As we wind down toward our annual organisational break before diving into 2025, here’s a brief look at what we have been up to in October, November, and December.

The third quarter of 2024 kept us on our feet with many movement-building moments, workshops, and our annual Cape Town Climate Week. As we prepare for the final quarter of 2024, here’s a brief look at what we have been up to in July, August, and September.

The second quarter of 2024 followed suit from the first with many milestones and a fully packed calendar of events, workshops, and new projects. As we prepare for the second half of 2024, here’s a brief look at what we have been up to in April, May, and June.
