As extreme weather events become more frequent and intense across Africa, from devastating floods in Lagos and Nairobi to prolonged droughts in the Sahel, cities are no longer just places where people live. They are the frontlines of climate change. With urban populations projected to reach 1.3 billion by 2050 (African Development Bank), building climate resilience is no longer optional; it is an urgent necessity for sustainable development and Agenda 2063.

Climate change is transforming our planet, posing significant challenges to ecosystems, economies, and communities worldwide. Understanding what climate change does is critical for developing effective strategies to mitigate its effects, particularly in vulnerable regions like Africa.
