Our Priorities

Our grantmaking is linked by our cross-cutting support for:

Effective Land Use Policy & Finance

Advancing land use policies and finance that help countries achieve ambitious climate targets and contribute to sustainable development.

Secure Community Rights & Management

Supporting indigenous and traditional communities’ land rights and management of their forests, and stopping the killing and criminalization of environmental defenders.

Deforestation- & Conflict-Free Agricultural Commodities

Eliminating deforestation, land degradation, illegality, and social conflict from global supply chains and related financial investments.

Strong Standards & Transparency for Infrastructure and Extractive Industries

Establishing strong environmental, social, and governance standards, and increasing transparency and oversight of investments in infrastructure and extractive industries.

Awareness of Forests and Lands as Climate Solutions

Increasing understanding of forests and lands as essential to people and the planet to improve policy outcomes and land use practices.

Natural Carbon Capture

Increasing the role of forests and lands as carbon sinks, while ensuring forests retain ecosystem, livelihood, and other values for local communities.

Healthy Diets/Healthy Planet

Shifting consumption toward protein sources that are healthier for people and the planet.
