Abstract:

In the process of global low-carbon development，Africa is taking active moves by making policies on low-carbon
development and climate change，by promoting clean energy development，and by establishing carbon finance and carbon
market system through international cooperation. In low-carbon development，Africa has the advantages of immense reserves of
clean energy and carbon sinks and hence a great prospect. On the other hand，Africa has to face a series of challenges of leapfrog
development，lack of propulsion，and failure to combining low-carbon development with efforts against climate change. If
Africa could take the opportunity of global low-carbon development，keep away from the trap of traditional industrialization，
low-carbon development will be the new starting point and driving power of its healthy advancement.

Key words: Africa, low-carbon development, clean energy, carbon finance, carbon market, climate change
