The Institute for Climate and Society is the foundation’s main in-country partner for climate mitigation efforts in Brazil. The Institute evolved from the Latin America Regional Climate Initiative, a collaboration among ClimateWorks Foundation, Oak Foundation, and the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation. The Institute has established itself as a country convener, coordinator, and re-granter, and now works with Brazilian foundations such as Arapyaú Institute. This general operating support grant seeks to improve the Institute’s capacity to deliver their goals. Priority goals in the coming year include the implementation of Brazil’s Intended Nationally Determined Contribution, engaging at the national and sub-national level on climate mitigation programs.
