Pan African Climate Justice Alliance and its strategic partners have been implementing the road to Cop27 and Beyond Advocacy framework as its overarching advocacy framework and guiding both national and pan african Advocacy efforts in 2022. The development of this strategy was largely motivated by i. the vulnerabilities for Africa continent and its people being not fully internalized in climate conversations, as negotiations are by passing the poor; ii. NDCs that do not prioritize adaptation which is key to the poor in Africa; iii. the need to rekindle citizen-led actions for accountability in implementation of climate commitments iv. consolidating African voices and the strive to advance for a common position for Africa and v. the strive to strengthen support mechanisms for negotiators and policy makers. this advocacy framework has its broad objectives that have guided the campaign as:

1. to create societal conditions that allow communities in Africa to realize their human rights and live in a healthy and sustainable environment, within the context of the climate crisis.
2. To enable African countries to have access to climate finance for adaptation, loss and damage, technological transfer and mitigation.
3. developed countries honor their climate commitments and pledges and work with Csos, government and private sectors for accountability
