Strategies
Overview
This grant will support Tara’s work in Asia to support a clean energy transition and develop a pilot education strategy. In 2022, Tara will help ensure China’s overseas coal finance commitment is clear, ambitious, and without loopholes. They will also work with local and partners to accelerate public finance into clean energy in the region and initiate a fossil-free campaign focused on the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AAIB). Finally, funds will enable Tara to put a monitoring system in place to track finance for gas projects, while developing an Asia-wide pilot education strategy to help the next generation of South and Southeast Asian leaders embrace renewable energy and sustainability.
