Applications are now open for the Climate Justice Resilience Fund (CJRF) under the theme Building connections, networks, and collaborative spaces for climate justice and resilience.
The Climate Justice Resilience Fund (CJRF) is one of the first major philanthropic initiatives framed explicitly around climate justice, and one of the few that works internationally on climate resilience. They put people, their rights, and their lived experience directly at the center of climate action.
They envision a thriving planet built on participation, equity, human rights and justice, where people who have been disproportionately affected by climate change issues are recognized and resourced to lead solutions and act at the emerging frontiers of climate justice. To this end, they fund locally led, rights-based initiatives to help communities reduce risk, manage shocks, rebound, and continue charting their path to development.
Deadline: 08-May-24
Amount: Between $50,000 USD and $2 million USD
