NDC Africa
NDC Africa Tracker
The NDC Tracker is a powerful tool designed to monitor and assess the progress of African countries in meeting their NDC commitments under the Paris Agreement. It provides real-time data and insights into the implementation of climate action plans, helping stakeholders track progress, identify gaps, and advocate for stronger, more effective policies. The tracker covers key areas such as renewable energy targets, climate finance, and adaptation measures, offering a comprehensive view of how Africa is advancing towards its climate goals.
Kow it works
The NDC Tracker aggregates data from multiple sources, including government reports, international organizations, and civil society inputs, to provide an up-to-date picture of NDC implementation across Africa. Our methodology combines quantitative and qualitative analysis, ensuring that the tracker reflects both the numbers and the on-the-ground realities. The tracker is updated regularly, with input from local experts, to ensure accuracy and relevance. Users can explore detailed country profiles, compare progress across the region, and access visual representations of key indicators.
NDC Campaign
Africa is disproportionately affected by climate change, despite contributing minimally to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The continent faces severe impacts, including extreme weather events, food insecurity, and loss of biodiversity, which threaten the livelihoods of millions. Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) offer a critical pathway for African countries to address these challenges by outlining their climate action plans.
Empowering Africa to Lead in Climate Action: The NDC Africa Campaign envisions a continent where African nations, supported by robust and equitable climate finance, drive transformative climate action. We seek to strengthen, enhance, and implement Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) that are ambitious, inclusive, and reflective of Africa’s unique needs and potential. Our vision is an Africa where civil society plays a pivotal role in defining, implementing, and evaluating NDCs alongside governments at the national level, ensuring that the most climate-vulnerable communities are resilient, renewable energy is at the forefront of development, and the global community fulfills its commitment to climate justice, enabling Africa to thrive in a sustainable, low-carbon future.
Key Challenges in NDC Implementation in Africa
Financial Constraints​
African nations face numerous financial barriers in implementing their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). These constraints hinder the ability to meet climate targets, particularly in areas of mitigation, adaptation, and resilience building.
The current financial support for climate action in Africa is neither sufficient nor reliable. Many of the pledges made by Global North countries at international climate forums have not been fully realized. This shortfall in funding prevents African countries from executing ambitious climate actions and scaling up initiatives in renewable energy, adaptation, and resilience.
African countries are among the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, yet they face exorbitant costs in adapting to these challenges. Without substantial financial assistance, many countries struggle to implement necessary adaptation measures, leaving communities at risk.

Financial Constraints​
Technical capacity and technology transfer are critical to the successful implementation of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) in Africa. However, many countries across the continent face significant barriers in these areas, which hinder their ability to meet climate targets and build resilience against the impacts of climate change.

Inclusivity and Public Participation
The success of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) in Africa relies not only on technical and financial capacities but also on the degree to which these plans are inclusive and participatory. However, many African countries face challenges in ensuring that NDC processes are truly inclusive, leading to gaps in implementation and a lack of ownership among the broader population.
