Foundations & Philanthropies

Not all critical climate research fits within government funding cycles or institutional priorities. Foundations and Philanthropies help fill that gap - sustaining independent, evidence-based science, reaching communities most exposed to climate risk, and supporting a fair path forward as economies and societies adapt.

Why partner as foundation / philanthropy?

• Impact: Support the climate knowledge that helps protect food security, prepare for disasters, and plan energy systems around the world — especially in communities most exposed to climate risk.
• Positioning: Association with an independent, globally trusted, UN-affiliated scientific programme - reinforcing your organization's credibility and commitment to evidence-based impact.
• Access: A direct channel to WCRP's scientific network and the research it coordinates worldwide - helping ensure that knowledge reaches the people and places that need it most.
• Insights: Ongoing visibility into WCRP's work and its impact worldwide.

All contributions are formally recognized by WCRP.
