Trends in climate philanthropy
Exploring the funding landscape in India (2024)
A first-of-its-kind assessment that analyses key trends in
climate philanthropy in India,
and suggests how funders can
embrace India’s climate mandate.
Strategic philanthropy can play a catalytic role in accelerating India’s climate progress. However, data on climate giving is fragmented and inaccessible.
To contribute towards intelligence on India’s climate philanthropy landscape, we drew on quantitative and qualitative insights from conversations with and publicly available data on 65 funders (CSR, domestic, and international) for the period 2018-2023.
