Article by Donald Nyakairu, Partner, ENS Uganda

We’re pleased to share an important update from our member ENS, exploring Uganda’s newly introduced National Climate Change (Mechanisms) Regulations, 2025, a significant step in formalising and scaling the country’s carbon market.

The article outlines how the Regulations provide a clear framework for approving, registering, verifying, and monitoring carbon projects, both domestic and international. With detailed processes for project approval and emissions validation, the rules aim to attract more private sector participation and investment in Uganda’s growing climate finance ecosystem.

ENS also highlights how existing projects will be treated under the new law and offers guidance to developers and investors navigating this evolving space.

This is essential reading for members interested in climate finance, carbon markets, and regulatory developments across Africa.
