Grants to this Grantee
for scoping U.S.-China climate engagement
This grant will support the Center for American Progress in organizing a series of climate dialogues between high-level Chinese and U.S. leaders, as well as work to bring together rising Chinese and North American climate experts. This grant seeks to build trust between high-level stakeholders in the two countries so they may work together to support increased climate ambition in both the U.S. and China. It also seeks to bring together young climate experts to share knowledge and develop joint strategies to decarbonize both countries.
for the Climate Finance Regulatory Project
The Center for American Progress is an independent nonpartisan policy institute whose work spans environmental and economic issues. The center will develop a climate change financial regulatory plan, working with a coalition of both climate and finance experts across the United States.
for Generation Progress' digital advocacy campaigns centered on reproductive justice

Generation Progress will focus its digital advocacy and policy campaigns on issues that young people have polled as high priorities and will center their work on racial justice, gender justice, and LBGTQ equity.
