The Africa Climate Week (ACW 2023) is one of four Regional Climate Weeks held this year to build momentum ahead of the UN Climate Change Conference COP 28 in Dubai and the conclusion of the first Global Stocktake, designed to chart the way for fulfilling the Paris Agreement's key goals.

Hosted by the government of Kenya, ACW 2023 will be organised in parallel with the African Climate Action Summit (4-6 September), also hosted by Kenya.
