This chapter critically examines decolonisation approaches in south carbon trading, focusing on African participation through the lens of the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement. While both agreements offer mechanisms for market-based climate mitigation, they have been critiqued for reinforcing colonial power dynamics and failing to address the structural vulnerabilities of African nations. Drawing on interdisciplinary scholarship and empirical studies, the chapter analyses the limitations of current carbon market regimes and proposes a decolonial framework grounded in equity and sovereignty. It also explores emerging initiatives such as the African Carbon Markets Initiative and domestic legislation in Nigeria and South Africa, emphasising their potential to operationalise African-led climate action.
