Partners
The Open Society Foundations (OSF) are the world’s largest private funder of independent groups working for justice, democratic governance, and human rights. They approach this mission through the illuminating principles of justice, equity, and expression — defining characteristics of any truly open society.
The Loss and Damage Collaboration (L&DC) is a network of climate policy and cultural and creative practitioners, researchers, activists, lawyers, advocates and decision-makers, from both the global North and South working together to ensure that countries and communities impacted by the climate crisis have the support they need to address climate change-related loss and damage.
