About

A climate-finance house, built from Rungwe outward.

Africa Climate Finance community work in Tanzania

Who we are

We fill a finance gap that policy language cannot.

Africa Climate Finance connects village-level microfinance with institutional climate capital. We work from Rungwe cooperatives to major funding proposals, keeping 1.5°C alive through both grassroots action and the structures funders require.

The work spans financial literacy, climate-smart lending, market analysis, and project preparation. The through-line is simple: climate action that cannot be financed cannot last.

The model

Community education → microfinance → project preparation → climate funds

Community Education → Microfinance → Project Preparation → Climate Funds

Mission

Fill the gap of climate finance in Africa via microfinance for private and vulnerable communities, aligned with low-carbon, climate-resilient pathways and SDG 13.

Pathway

Establish the Climate-Smart Microfinance Initiative in Tanzania, using Central Bank licensing to de-risk and scale climate investment, then replicate proven models more widely.
