Grants to this Grantee
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 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 support of the fiscal policy and budget process reform efforts
The Center for American Progress (CAP) is a multi-issue, nonpartisan policy institute whose core mission is to generate new policy ideas and translate them into progressive change. It regularly partners across the ideological spectrum to forge consensus policies and improve ways of governing. At a time when long-standing democratic norms face unprecedented strain, the center is focused on revitalizing public institutions and improving policymaking procedures. This project will advance work CAP has done to evaluate and propose changes to how the congressional budget process operates, including by researching and advancing proposals on emerging issues in federal budgeting.
