for PGM ONE programming and strategic planning
A fiscally sponsored project of Earth Island Institute, PGM ONE envisions a world that centers, values, uplifts, and empowers those who are most impacted by environmental harm and climate change — and in particular Black, Indigenous, and people of color/the global majority. The project, which engages with advocates from across the field of land and water conservation, is offering online programming and an annual summit to share, learn, collaborate, heal, celebrate, build community, find support, and deepen practice to uproot the systems of oppression and mobilize to transform individuals, movements, and society.
