The Africa Climate Action Roundtable will bring together stakeholders to discuss ways to scale up a more effective climate response and promote innovative solutions to support Africa’s climate action and food security. The roundtable aims to improve coordination and facilitate reaching a common African position, with a solutions-led approach.

- Establish a Pan-African Climate Action Task Force;
- Create a continental platform for stakeholders;
- Develop a blueprint action plan for coordination; and
