Norway provides NOK 50 Million to strengthen Africa’s climate resilience through ARC Ltd.’s SACPIP-Africa initiative

Africa’s economic and social fabric is disproportionately affected by climate change. Over 95% of Africa’s food production depends on rainfed agriculture, with over 70% of the continent’s population relying on it for their livelihoods, making them highly vulnerable to erratic weather patterns. Disasters like droughts and floods exacerbate food insecurity, damage infrastructure, and erode decades of developmental progress. Current humanitarian aid systems are reactive, slow, and insufficient, and many African nations lack the financial and technical resources to respond effectively to such disasters, leaving countries to face delays that deepen human suffering and economic loss.
