Philanthropy in a changing climate: challenges and perspectives for a just transition
Across the globe, societies are confronting climate disruption and its serious consequences for both the planet and its populations. The interdependence between the climate crisis, environmental degradation, and socio-economic inequalities is becoming increasingly apparent. As the need for urgent action grows to prevent even more devastating impacts, philanthropy has a crucial role to play in fostering a fair and inclusive ecological transition.
These challenges are at the core of a new study conducted by the Philanthropy & Society Observatory of the Fondation de France, in collaboration with Anne Monier, a researcher at the ESSEC Philanthropy Chair. The study’s key findings were presented on November 5 at the Académie du Climat in Paris, during an event attended by leading experts in the field.
