Center for American Progress

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.

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.

This grant will support Generation Progress’ capacity to scale its digital organizing campaigns to mobilize more young people to become civically engaged on gender justice and reproductive justice issues in their communities. 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.
