Details

The overall focus is on developing and promoting sustainable, low-carbon alternatives to the current consumerist and growth-based paradigm. Funding priorities are:

• Better economics
• Beyond consumerism
• New voices

Due to a review of their grant making, the Trust ask that you read the guidelines carefully, along with the funding priorities and general exclusions, and speak with programme staff before writing a proposal.

Full guidance is available on the Trust website.

They are specifically interested in work:

• From those who are actively building power amongst communities or with a track record of community organising around climate, economics, or environment
• From those with a solid understanding of the causes of the climate and/or economic crises
• From groups and organisations that effectively connect the intersecting harms of climate breakdown, racial injustice, economic inequality, and the legacies of colonialism
• From groups and organisations who struggle to obtain funding elsewhere (for example, only one core funder, or no core funding) and are working on these issues
• Which considers the needs and well-being of staff, volunteers, and other participants
• For which there is a demonstrable need
• Where it is clearly explained why you are the right organisation or group to carry out this project.
