Wilo-Foundation supports reforestation projects in Western Ghats near Pune
Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation is a large community foundation in Melbourne, Australia, with an endowment of Aus $255 million. We hold strategic and donor advised funds and aim to respond to the changing needs of the community. In Melbourne, our priorities are lack of affordable housing, growing wealth inequality and most importantly climate change.
The WINGS network hopes these promising new practices will help development funders of all types to deepen their impact on people’s lives and reduce communities’ dependency while strengthening local and national organisations to design and lead their own work.
The world is facing unparalleled multidimensional crises. This leads some to fear that it has become even more difficult to live up to the challenges of climate change and sustainable development. At the same time, fortunately, the resolve for action on climate change and sustainable development is getting stronger. Scientists, non-governmental organisations, also more and more leaders in industry are urging governments to move faster on climate change.
