Our Purpose

Closing the Data Gap for a Resilient Africa

We empower policymakers, researchers, and citizens with the high-quality, open-access data needed to drive climate action and sustainable energy access across the continent.

The Challenge

Africa contributes the least to global greenhouse gas emissions yet remains the most vulnerable continent to climate change impacts. Simultaneously, it faces a massive energy deficit, with over 600 million people lacking access to electricity.

However, data fragmentation remains a critical barrier. Climate data, energy statistics, and socio-economic indicators are often siloed, outdated, or inaccessible, making it impossible to design effective, evidence-based policies.

The Reality
  • Inconsistent Reporting: National data varies in methodology across 54 borders.
  • Lack of Granularity: Regional averages hide local crises in poverty and drought.
  • Inaccessible Formats: Critical data is often locked in PDF reports rather than machine-readable datasets.

Our Solution

Climate Watch Africa aggregates, harmonizes, and visualizes data from trusted global sources into a single, unified intelligence platform.

Open Data Aggregation

We consolidate datasets from the World Bank, WHO, Our World in Data, and satellite imagery into standardized, machine-readable formats covering all 54 nations.

Actionable Analytics

We don't just show numbers. We provide visualization tools—heatmaps, trend lines, and comparative rankings—to turn raw data into policy insights.

AI-Driven Intelligence

Our platform integrates advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to allow users to query complex datasets using simple questions, democratizing access to technical data.
