Regions
The ClimateWorks Network focuses its efforts in the geographic regions that have the greatest potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions: China, the United States, the European Union, India, and Latin America.
The Network organizations that work in these nations are called Regional Climate Foundations. These foundations are staffed and led by local political and policy veterans who work with key stakeholders in defined geographic areas to:
- Advance national and regional policy objectives to reduce emissions
- Foster collaboration between organizations
- Promote cohesive strategies across organizations
- Maximize results and philanthropic return on investment
The Regional Climate Foundations are the largest recipients of ClimateWorks’ support, and they manage the bulk of the Network’s grants.
