Africa: Climate Change

Asked by Bell Ribeiro-AddyLabourForeign, Commonwealth and Development OfficeTabled Answered 18 December 2025UIN 100460

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, with reference to the UK's Africa Approach launch on 15 December 2025, how much UK climate finance is planned for Africa over the next spending review period, and how this will be split between mitigation, adaptation and nature.

Answered by Chris Elmore

I refer the Hon Member to the statement published on 15 December (UIN HCWS1168) setting out our commitment to advance shared interests on climate, nature, and clean energy with our African partners. We will provide further updates in due course on specific priorities and initiatives arising from that commitment.
