Joint Ambition and Action
The World Climate Foundation collaborates closely with governments, businesses, financial institutions and international organizations. We address climate, biodiversity, and resilience challenges by fostering public-private partnerships in climate, biodiversity and health, aligned with the Paris Agreement, the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Guided by an annual roadmap, we engage with members and partners of our 3 global networks; World Climate, Biodiversity, and Health Network. Year-round engagements include an active contribution and participation at the high-level global Summits, partnership and coalition building, and strategic insights to maximise joint ambition and action.

Key Initiatives
Accelerating the Transition to a Green Economy through Impactful Partnerships and Coalitions
Through strategic partnerships and collaborative efforts, we have initiated four key initiatives. The goal of these initiatives is to catalyse solutions and to channel investments into climate and biodiversity efforts, particularly in the emerging markets and developing countries.
Our commitment to fostering resilience in emerging markets is evident through the Investment Mobilisation Collaboration Alliance (IMCA). By mobilising private capital for climate adaptation initiatives, we are actively working towards building climate-resilient communities by 2025. This endeavour not only safeguards vulnerable populations but also unlocks new opportunities for sustainable development in regions most affected by climate change.
Investment Mobilisation Collaboration Alliance:

These summits serve as critical platforms for driving action and shaping the international agenda on climate change and sustainability.
