Overview
The Partnership Project will use Hewlett funding to support two programs: the Climate Advocacy Lab and the Methane Partners Campaign. The Climate Advocacy Lab helps climate and clean energy advocates run more effective campaigns by providing support for polling, data analytics, social science expertise, experimentation, and other tools. The Lab makes research and experimentation results available to its nearly 2,000 member groups though an online platform. The Methane Partners Campaign is a coordinated effort by many state and national organizations to defend and implement — and eventually strengthen — regulations to reduce methane emissions from oil and gas drilling. The Campaign is working to preserve EPA authority to regulate methane, defend strong rules that limit methane emissions from new oil and gas production sites, and build support for reducing methane emissions among state and federal decision makers.

Grants to this Grantee
for the Climate Advocacy Lab
The Climate Advocacy Lab equips advocates with the insights, skills, connections, and support needed to drive systems change, develop climate policies, run successful campaigns, and hold decision makers accountable. The lab, a program of the Partnership Project, seeks to share actionable, evidence-based insights to answer climate advocates’ most pressing questions and build skills, capacity, and community through training.

for the Green Leadership Trust
The Partnership Project’s Green Leadership Trust works to build a more effective environmental movement by supporting and growing the impact and leadership of Black, Indigenous, and people of color serving on U.S. environmental nonprofit boards. Given the impact of boards on the direction of their organizations’ hiring and retention practices, programming, and partnerships, the Western Conservation grantmaking strategy acknowledges that such efforts are a key part of the work to ensure the environmental movement is inclusive and relevant. Green Leadership Trust is guided first and foremost by members’ responsibilities as fiduciaries of the organizations they represent. (Substrategy: Build the Conditions for Enduring Conservation)
for the Climate Action Campaign
The Partnership Project hosts the Climate Action Campaign, a coalition of national environmental organizations and allies. The coalition executes sophisticated federal campaigns to accomplish two goals: reduce emissions by putting clean energy on the grid and electrifying the nation in equitable ways; and create the conditions necessary for federal decision makers to embrace ambitious climate action, now and in the future.
