Climate Justice-Just Transition Donor Collaborative

There is not enough funding going to climate justice, and it is not reaching those who need it the most.

Addressing the root causes of the climate crisis – deeply unjust social, political, and economic structures – demands transformational change across all sectors of society. The current structures have put wealth and power in the hands of a polluting few. Yet, those who have contributed least to climate change bear the brunt of its catastrophic effects, including deadly heatwaves, catastrophic fires, severe droughts, and extreme flooding.

The Climate Justice - Just Transition (CJ-JT) Donor Collaborative was set up by six philanthropies in 2021 to shift power and philanthropic resources to just and equitable climate solutions led by those on the front lines who do not yet have their due share of voice in policy-making and whose efforts are critically under-resourced.

The CJ-JT Donor Collaborative launched a Wiki map to help organizations and funders easily find Climate Justice and Justice Transition organizations and networks based in the Global South. They invite you to explore the Climate Justice Map.
