Designing collaborative climate action in India.

In 2020, our founders came together to build a first-of-its-kind collaborative. The goal was to build India's climate ecosystem and harness climate philanthropy’s potential.

Why climate philanthropy?

Grant capital can be strategically and swiftly deployed to shape fair, equitable pathways towards achieving India's net-zero goals. Patient and risk-tolerant, it can help in the following ways.

  • Prove unconventional or novel ideas, and allow them to attract other forms of capital

  • Support communities and sectors most adversely affected by climate change

  • Build a better understanding of India's diverse ecological, social, and development needs
