What we fund
Projects that advance learning and scale effective interventions to help wildlife, ecosystems and the people who value and depend on them adapt to climate change.
Grant requirements and funding priorities are designed to incentivize Adaptation Implementation projects that innovate and increase the pace of learning, and Adaptation Mainstreaming projects that broaden adoption of adaptation approaches at a larger scale.
“The support of WCS and the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation is helping The Trust for Public Land innovate new approaches to climate conservation across some of America’s most important Resilient Landscapes. Over time these innovations will
become our ‘new normal’ for conserving land across America.”
