Overview
The Action Center on Race and the Economy Institute (ACRE Institute) drives campaigns that seek to win structural change to extractive financial practices that have harmed communities of color and poor families for generations. ACRE Institute is proposing to fill an urgent need in the U.S. climate financial regulation space for a racial and economic justice-led analysis, including through engaging financial and climate justice organizations to develop and advocate for climate finance regulatory changes.
