Growing the
Green Economy

We drive the UAE's transition to a green economy through effective innovation collaboration, and policy advocacy.

UAE Independent Climate Change Accelerators (UICCA) Ltd. is a nonprofit climate action organisation on a mission to accelerate climate action by driving the UAE’s transition to a green economy through effective innovation, collaboration, and policy advocacy in support of the UAE Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative.

We empower and enable organisations to fulfil their sustainability commitments through data-driven research and insightful policy development, bespoke capacity building programmes, and technology acceleration.

Carbon Solutions

We identify and advance the most promising models for decarbonisation. We collaborate with partners in power, industry, and transportation to devise low-carbon pathways and implement clean energy technologies.

Circular Economy

We find sustainable ways to make products and use resources. We accelerate the efforts of UAE policymakers and regulators to improve circularity in manufacturing, infrastructure, transport, and food.

Climate Adaptation
