CLIMA Fund: Collaborating for Climate Solutions
Introduction
Indigenous, peasant, Afrodescendant, feminist, and youth-led grassroots movements are advancing immediate, ambitious, and effective solutions to the climate crisis.
Climate change is ravaging people and the planet.
Without immediate action, we will lose the cultural and ecological diversity required to survive. But answers exist. And the most ambitious solutions are coming from those who are most impacted by but least responsible for climate change: Indigenous and Afrodescendant Peoples, peasants, youth, women, and LGBTQIA+ people. Yet, these communities and their movements often lack the resources and power necessary to make change a reality.
That’s where we come in.
The CLIMA Fund is a collaboration between Global Greengrants Fund, Grassroots International, Thousand Currents, and Urgent Action Fund for Feminist Activism — a like-minded community funding grassroots movements to cool the planet and build resilience around the globe.
In short, the CLIMA Fund mobilizes the philanthropic sector to resource grassroots climate justice solutions. Working together, we give influential funders a simple and effective way to invest in grassroots climate change movements.
