All SolutionsTraining & Capacity Building
To sustain climate action, we must have the skills to accomplish our goals.
Since the beginning, SSA has been dedicated to growing Africa's ability to design, finance, and deliver climate-resilient development – leveraging the skills of our continent and reducing reliance on external consultants.
We work on technical, institutional and operational capacity building with governments, financial institutions, enterprises, and communities. Our approach goes beyond short-term workshops. Training is embedded through hands-on learning, managing live project pipelines, vocational opportunities, and local academies, ensuring that knowledge is applied, retained, and institutionalised.
Participants in training programs work on actual concept notes, feasibility studies, financial models, climate-risk analyses, safeguards frameworks, and investment proposals — supported by SSA's technical teams.
Our work helps participants to:
- Build applied expertise in climate finance and project structuring
- Contribute to strengthening pan-African climate finance capacity
- Amplify learning by training and upskilling others
