OUR WORK 

CECG uses the annual Conference of Party meetings (the COPs) as moments of accountability, helping to create the conditions that will accelerate implementation of the Paris Climate Agreement, and secure multilateral action that supports and empowers those most at risk in the climate emergency.

• We align the philanthropic community around COP-specific interventions that raise ambitions and enable action

• We provide funding to give underrepresented voices a seat at the table, and support initiatives that can make a critical difference in collective climate progress

• We engage with philanthropies, governments, and civil society to foster greater strategic alignment around priorities and spaces for partnerships and action at each COP. 

Since our launch in 2020, we’ve funded more than 150 organizations, often in places climate philanthropy doesn’t usually focus, helping to ensure the voices of countries and constituencies most affected by climate change have the resources to effectively engage in and influence the UNFCCC process.
