The objective of NET Africa is to work in partnership with key stakeholders. We focus on developing financial/investment solutions and innovations to address biodiversity challenges in Africa. Biodiversity finance and investment can be directed towards climate change mitigation and adaptation.
We work in partnership with a number of key stakeholders with an interest in the interactions between biodiversity and the economy. We have a particular interest in the interactions between biodiversity, gender and the economy in Africa.

Technologies & Fuels
Solar
Clean Cooking Activities
We are interested in investing in solar scale capacity in Africa, to improve sustainable energy production and usage which is critical to address climate change, mitigation, and adaption issues as well as improve health amongst the vastly growing population.
In Africa, there is a high dependency on non-renewable energy; up to 70% of energy-consumption derives from renewable energy sources. It is estimated that 4 out of 5 households rely on biomass for energy consumption, mainly fuelwood and charcoal.
Within these households, women play a significant role in household energy consumption, from collecting the fuelwood to sourcing different types of renewable energy. The need for changing fuelwood household consumption to solar energy is vital to reduce carbon emissions and improve the health of the local citizens.
Partnership
We would like to contribute in the following ways:-
(1) To provide workshops, seminars, and training on capacity building on financial management, business plans, and marketing research.
(2) To work with investment-ready organisations to present them to our network of investors as case studies and potential investment candidates.
(3) To conduct research for policy formation.
