The partnership was solidified with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding at the NCCC office in Abuja.

This collaboration aims to unify efforts in addressing Nigeria’s vulnerability to the impacts of climate change. It epitomises a shared commitment to tackling this challenge, setting a precedent for proactive and impactful measures in the face of global climate challenges.

Representatives from both organisations were present at the signing, including Dr Salisu Dahiru, Grace Oluchi Mbah, co-founder and executive director of CAA; Michael Ivenso, director of energy, transportation and infrastructure at NCCC, and others.

Underscoring the significance of the partnership, director general of NCCC, Dr Salisu Dahiru stated that, “Our collaboration with Climate Action Africa is a pivotal step towards building a climate-resilient Nigeria. Through joint efforts, we aim to promptly address vulnerabilities and work towards sustainable solutions for our nation.”

According to the 2021 Notre Dame Global Adaptation Index, Nigeria is ranked as the 53rd most vulnerable and 179th most ready country to adapt to climate change. The country faces significant challenges from extreme weather events such as droughts, floods, erosion, and rising sea levels. These risks particularly threaten sectors like agriculture, water resources, public health, and settlements.
