About us

We lead the narrative for climate-focused industries and provide the voice of the climate movement in Kenya

The Nairobi Climate Network (NCN) is a thriving and interconnected community of climate professionals dedicated to advancing climate action in Kenya. We serve as the collective voice of the industry, empowering members to accelerate Kenya’s journey towards climate-positive growth.

Kenya is uniquely positioned to lead in climate action, boasting opportunities in renewables, carbon markets, nature-based solutions and many more. NCN harnesses the convergence of ideas, people, and resources, catalysing innovation and collaboration in the climate sector.

We cultivate connections and partnership among climate professionals through curated events, knowledge sharing, and collective action to build a thriving ecosystem for climate solutions in Kenya.

NCN is part of The Climate Network, a non-profit organisation that builds local communities of climate professionals driving climate action in Africa.

We believe that a collaborative ecosystem of actors will solve the climate crisis faster and more effectively. The Climate Network will help to achieve this by enabling local climate professionals to collaborate and deploy climate solutions faster and more effectively, supporting external actors adopt practices and policies that better enable climate solutions and amplifying Kenyan voices in the international climate community. Member stories and solutions will be showcased and championed on the international climate stage so that the world recognises the potential of Kenya in solving climate change.
