The Climate Initiative

Organization Country: United States

Provide education and tools for engagement towards the end of transitioning regular communities to climate resilient communities. Education and empowerment initiatives are community based.

“Young climate champions” – People who care about the planet and its people, and are young.

They educate and engage communities with their programs/resources

There are nine programs:

  • Learning Lab (educating high schoolers about climate change and cc solutions)

  • Ambassadors (training people to connect with and educate people of all ages)

  • Stories of Change (same thing as half the story but with a story about what inspired people to act on climate change)

  • Climate Career Fellowships (helps youth become politicians, i guess)

  • Educator Retreats (professional development days for teachers that are centered around climate change and teaching it well)

  • Community Conversations (starting conversations in your own community and “discovering the places your community values”)

  • Our Beautiful Planet (films from climate scientists)

  • Climate Courage (a workshop where youth can talk about their feelings on climate change)

Staff made up mostly of youth, with a few adults (leaders, maybe)

Advisory Board made up of middle aged to old people

Board of directors that mostly dinosaurs with a smattering of younger people


Likely the dinosaurs on the board of directors, with some donations

They partner with a lot of corporations, have a “join the movement” link in the footer of every page, and have about 45 people within the organization, between the three different levels of the organizational structure.


Their main deliverable:  “TCI aims to educate, empower and activate 1 million youth to reach this goal by 2025.”



All of these questions were easily answered in about 10 minutes of going through their page. We need to be similar.
