Featured 
Initiatives

​​We are excited to have launched Integral, our platform to advance collectively owned strategies for visionary change—see our recent cover article in Stanford Social Innovation Review—and visit the Integral website to learn more.

The following initiatives showcase some of our efforts to shift paradigms within our current priority areas: human and planetary health; and just and safe economies.

 

The deeply systemic nature of these initiatives make them challenging to classify (as they exist at intersections by design), and their global ambition and scale makes them challenging to map.​​

​These initiatives are not just about us, but about everyone with whom we are co-creating these initiatives. We are privileged to be co-creators and accelerators of these critical agendas with the inspiring people who care about them and are attempting to solve them.

Preventing Pandemics at the Source

Transforming humanity's broken relationship with nature to prevent the next pandemic before it starts - and also mitigate climate change, reduce biodiversity loss, and improve equity

Preventing Pandemics at the Source (PPATS) confronts the problem of emerging infectious diseases at its root, building on the singular opportunity for change spurred by COVID-19. By preventing the spillover of diseases from animals to humans, PPATS aims to not only provide a more equitable and comprehensive solution to stopping future pandemics, but also to create climate and biodiversity co-benefits in the process. Working with 20 leading global organizations as well as local communities, PPATS utilizes science, policy, and advocacy to prevent deforestation, curb wildlife trade, and improve the biosecurity of livestock production.

Sharing Strategies

Unleashing the public finance, advocacy, and country-level collaborative action that the world needs at the nexus of climate and development

In the face of concurrent crises of climate, conflicts, and inequality, Sharing Strategies exists to enable the international development, climate and nature action communities to break out of old ways of working, escape siloed thinking and structures, and partner strategically around critical agendas. With the catalytic leadership of experienced anti-poverty campaigner Jamie Drummond (co-founder of the ONE Campaign), Sharing Strategies convenes and connects a diverse set of aligned actors to drive transformational change and unlock the additional $2.4-3 trillion per annum needed to deliver transformative measurable results across the SDGs and global climate commitments.

Climate Smart Forest Economy Program

Building sustainable, nature-positive economies

The Climate Smart Forest Economy Program (CSFEP) partners with
communities to build radically new economies that balance ecosystem
needs and pressing human needs. It helps regions identify how careful use of bio-based products can provide a low-carbon solution for their biggest human challenges—while generating revenue for sustainably managing landscapes, especially forests. CSFEP is forest-first, so core to its model is a commitment to using natural resources at a rate they can be regenerated. A coalition of forest and climate advocates, including Dalberg Catalyst, EIT Climate-KIC, Axum, and Good Energies Foundation, founded CSFEP in 2020 to build a new economic model that could support forest health while addressing critical human needs.
