About Ewap Project
Our Mission
The EWAP Project is committed to promoting Enhanced Weathering as a viable climate solution across Africa. We aim to empower communities and stakeholders to adopt sustainable practises that combat climate change.
EW, an emerging carbon capture technology, involves the application of finely ground silicate rocks (such as basalt) to agricultural soils. This process accelerates the natural weathering cycle, helping capture atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and converting it into stable carbonate forms. Africa’s diverse geology, extensive agricultural landscapes, and rising climate ambitions provide an ideal context for EW, though significant gaps in research and infrastructure need to be addressed to realize its full potential.
A Collaborative Alliance

Knowledge Hub
EWAP acts as a central knowledge hub for enhanced weathering in Africa, generating and sharing evidence to support responsible scale-up. Through research, training, and accessible resources, we reduce uncertainty and build capacity across the region.
