Philanthropic Approaches to Climate Action: Strategies and Tools
Setup
To hit our 2050 climate goals, the world needs philanthropists to be massively more engaged in the effort. Philanthropic capital can help get new ideas off the ground, take more risks than government or investment funds, and focus on areas like climate policy and advocacy where there is no immediate financial return. In this session, we’ll explore approaches and tools that turn giving into high-impact climate philanthropy.
