The climate crisis is one of the greatest challenges of our time. New technologies, investments, and public policies are essential to advancing solutions. So too are leaders who can turn ambition into action and build momentum at the speed and scale this moment demands.
The leaders best positioned to drive concrete progress across sectors can mobilize people toward shared goals and bring diverse perspectives to complex challenges. They navigate uncertainty, elevate underrepresented voices, and forge connections across institutions, sectors, and communities. Their leadership can help turn common purpose into collective action toward a better future for all.
Drawing on the perspectives of the Rockefeller Foundation, Instituto Clima e Sociedade (iCS), Fundação Lemann, Motriz, and event host Columbia Climate School, this program will explore what it takes to identify, develop, and connect the leaders needed to accelerate climate action. The discussion will also examine the role of philanthropy in cultivating the people, networks, and ecosystems needed to drive the systemic transformations the 21st century calls for.
