Africa is entering a decisive phase for carbon markets, yet significant gaps remain between project pipelines and the capital needed to bring them to life. Drawing on his experience originating and developing carbon projects across markets, Mo Safdar will share a practitioner's view of what it actually takes to get projects financed today. This event is part of a series in the lead-up to the Carbon Markets Africa Summit (CMAS), an event focused on catalyzing Africa's carbon market ecosystem. We look forward to seeing you there.
