Cape Town : One Carbon World (OCW) will be the official climate impact partner of the upcoming Carbon Markets Africa Summit (CMAS) taking place in Johannesburg from 22 to 23 October.
OCW is a not-for-profit dedicated to helping organisations reduce their carbon footprint and achieve recognised standards such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). They provide tailored guidance to clients and advocate for putting high-quality data in front of decision-makers.
Carbon Markets Africa Summit will gather the continent’s entire carbon markets value chain, from successful early carbon market movers, climate-finance-ready projects and regulatory bodies to global institutional development organisations and investors.
“We are very, very proud to be working with the VUKA group as their climate impact partner for the CMAS Summit,” said Madeleine Garlick, One Carbon World Africa Director. “We will be measuring the carbon footprint of the CMAS Summit. VUKA believes in leading by example, which includes setting high standards for themselves.”
She added that “Our partnership, we hope, will enable VUKA to gather huge amounts of data to understand the impacts of their summits. By working together, we hope to be able to track year-on-year improvements. It is a journey. And we think that this is a really, powerful move by an organisation who are not only hosting the critical green conversations that we need about Africa’s future, but are also leading the way by walking the walk themselves.”
One Carbon World recently began to expand its work into nature-based solutions projects in the carbon market.
Garlick said “This is very much in response to what our customers have been asking for, which is high integrity carbon credits to support their low carbon journey. Ultimately, we believe that carbon markets are a key part of the climate journey for a number of organisations.”
“We’re thrilled to accompany VUKA on the start of their journey as they take meaningful steps to measure the emissions of their inaugural Carbon Markets Africa Summit,” said Andrew Bowen, One Carbon World CEO.
