Recognizing the increasing severity of the pandemic, we have established a small emergency relief fund to assist any members of our team directly impacted by COVID-19.

As the global community increases ambition on nature-based solutions to climate change, there is a clear need to enhance training centers and technical workforces to implement the Paris Agreement in many Non-Annex I countries. By convening a network of networks, the Collaborative Capacity Lab (CCL) will scale the Carbon Institute’s proven train-the-trainer programs from six countries to 42 new countries. The CCL will train 400 new leaders by 2024 through four new regional Certificates in Advanced Nature Based Solutions.
