NO This presentation outlines an Africa-focused initiative aimed at accelerating action on non-carbon dioxide emissions, with specific emphasis on methane mitigation. It explains the context that, despite Africa’s relatively small share of global greenhouse gas emissions, the continent experiences disproportionate climate impacts and faces major data and capacity gaps related to methane. The document describes the rationale for prioritizing methane due to its significant abatement potential in agriculture, energy, and waste sectors and associated co-benefits. It presents the African Methane Community of Practice as an Africa-led collaborative network and details its institutional arrangement, governance structure, and work packages.
