Overview
The Aspen Institute’s Forum for Community Solutions pursues a variety of projects that support community collaboration. Earlier this year, through the Foundation’s Serving Bay Area Communities grantmaking, we funded one such project—the Forum’s Opportunity Youth Incentive Fund. The fund made 21 grants to collective impact initiatives across the country including two in the Bay Area to support strong collaboratives focused on building and deepening education and employment pathways for disadvantaged youth. This grant will continue our support of the fund by providing specific funding for evaluation planning.

Grants to this Grantee
for the Energy and Environment Program
The Aspen Institute Energy and Environment Program works with people, organizations, and governments to take greater action on solving climate change. This grant will enable the institute to cover costs for expert staff that is seconded to the federal government. Staff will report directly to the federal government and support its climate finance priorities. (Substrategy: Finance)
for India-U.S. Track II Dialogue on Energy and Climate Change
The Aspen Institute, in partnership with Ananta Aspen Centre in India, manages the India-U.S. Track II Dialogue on Energy and Climate Change. This sponsorship grant helped the institute assemble a group of experts from government, NGOs, academia, and the business community to help define a constructive bilateral agenda on critical energy and climate concerns. The Track II Dialogue aims to foster trust and cooperation, and uses targeted analyses to suggest concrete pathways for collaboration between the governments and relevant subnational and nonstate actors.
