In addition to our program leadership, we also provide funders with expertise and advisory support to help design and implement grantmaking strategies that drive climate progress. By harnessing our global networks and philanthropic infrastructure, we also help funders and other partners in the climate philanthropy ecosystem to connect, share knowledge, and advance solutions together.
We work with partner foundations in the U.S. and Europe that are interested in China and India by providing timely and context-specific advice, analysis, and recommendations on innovative climate solutions. We help develop joint ideas and strategies, identify local partners, and also actively engage with governments, the local philanthropic community, and civil society to share international experiences and best practices in mitigating climate change.
We help climate funders develop and execute investment strategies that advance their missions and goals, while also generating financial returns that can then be reinvested. We offer subject-matter expertise and access to networks, serving as a bridge between philanthropy, private finance, and entrepreneurs and other mission investing beneficiaries. We help investors deploy resources in innovative ways to stimulate climate markets.
Over the past decade, ClimateWorks has built a world-class grantmaking infrastructure that has enabled us to make more than $1 billion in grants to over 500 grantees in more than 40 countries around the world. Our programmatic expertise enables us to make strategic investments across a wide range of sectoral and geographic climate change mitigation opportunities using a diverse set of philanthropic intervention strategies.
