GSMA Mobile for Development and 4YFN Collaboration

Here’s a revised version of the summary that ties in 4YFN’s focus on startups and innovation:

Understanding the language of climate action is crucial for startups and innovators driving change in the tech ecosystem. The GSMA ClimateTech program has compiled a Green Glossary to help decode key concepts at the intersection of technology and sustainability.

This resource is particularly valuable for entrepreneurs tackling environmental challenges through innovative solutions, as it explores essential terms like:

  • Climate Resilience: Building systems that can withstand climate disruptions.
  • Climate Adaptation: Adjusting processes and strategies to reduce vulnerability to climate change.
  • Climate Mitigation: Proactively reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

The glossary also highlights the Three As framework—Adapt, Anticipate, Absorb—which provides practical approaches for developing climate-resilient solutions, from precision agriculture to early warning systems.

For startups at 4YFN working on ClimateTech innovations, this glossary is an invaluable tool for aligning with global sustainability goals and communicating your impact effectively. Dive into the full glossary here to learn more.
