Turning climate ambition into action.

The context

The policy problem.

Uganda's green economy and carbon markets are emerging but need considered policy development, capacity building, and public awareness — including how carbon credits can improve livelihoods for women in agriculture and smallholder communities.

How CeLPII contributes

Our contribution.

We anchor multi-stakeholder platforms like the Carbon Markets Association Uganda (CMAU), publish practitioner-facing guidance, and host climate clinics that connect legal expertise with the realities of project developers, regulators, and community groups.
