Overview
The Institute for Climate and Society evolved from the Latin America Regional Climate Initiative in Brazil, a result of collaboration with ClimateWorks Foundation, Oak Foundation, and the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation. The Institute has established itself as a country convener, coordinator, and re-granter for climate mitigation efforts around clean energy in Brazil. This general operating support grant seeks to improve the Institute’s capacity, strategies, and grantees to achieve their goals. One of the areas of emphasis in the coming year is the implementation of Brazil’s Intended Nationally Determined Contributions with low-carbon mobility and clean energy.
