Overview
Nia Community Foundation will provide educational programming about the importance of moving capital away from polluting passively managed index funds into climate solutions-focused portfolios, whether passively managed, actively managed, or hybrid. Nia will also support a campaign illustrating the accessibility of climate-friendly investing via retirement programs and investments for smaller and non-accredited investors, partnering with women’s investment circles and women-focused environmental groups. The measures will serve to empower women and other marginalized investors to take climate action with their assets. (Substrategy: Climate Finance)
