Climate Action & Economic Security: Integrating Climate Solutions into Your Asset-Funding Strategy
Our health, existing assets, and economic vitality are increasingly threatened, with mounting disasters and extreme conditions jeopardizing household financial security and widening wealth gaps. Ensuring both immediate and long-term community resilience demands urgent cross-sector action while advancing a just, clean energy transition. Historical inequities and underinvestment have left many communities without resources to implement climate solutions, making strategic philanthropic intervention critical.
In this webinar, leading funders will share strategies for integrating climate considerations across their portfolios through cross-sector partnerships and intersectional approaches. Examples include funding climate-resilient affordable housing, supporting CDFIs and community lenders offering affordable climate-friendly financial products, addressing health impacts of extreme weather, and advancing system changes in insurance, migration, energy, and finance – all while preserving economic security and building community wealth.
Join us on Tuesday, March 18, 1:00-2:00 P.M. ET, to explore ways philanthropy can shape inclusive solutions at the intersection of climate and economic security.
