Harnessing Carbon Markets for Africa's Development
About us
The Africa Carbon Markets Initiative (ACMI) is an initiative sponsored by SEforALL and The Rockefeller Foundation with a mission to accelerate the growth of high-integrity, equitable, and transparent carbon markets in Africa. As an initiative, we focus on realizing climate action and delivering environmental, developmental, and economic benefits for society by promoting carbon markets. ACMI is a non-partisan advocate that provides strategic advisory services and convenes market actors to catalyze change for African carbon markets. ACMI fosters collaboration for increased integrity, equity, and transparency while championing African interests by advancing a positive narrative on carbon markets. ACMI supports governments, project developers, and communities through direct support and tools for effective regulation and high-integrity supply. ACMI also acts as a central point of reference on the state of African carbon markets and assembles market participants to build joint momentum around the path forward. ACMI complements these efforts by advocating for all forms of high-integrity carbon markets (compliance, voluntary carbon markets, and international trading under Article 6), moving toward securing commitments and closing transactions.
