Climate Resilience
Building more resilient communities in the face of climate change
Climate change is the defining challenge of the 21st century and requires bold, decisive action.
The Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) prioritizes frontline communities experiencing the worst and most immediate effects of climate change. We mobilize action around corporate sustainability, urban decarbonization, clean energy transition, regenerative agriculture, nature-based solutions and biodiversity, water and sanitation, and disaster preparedness and response. We actively engage stakeholders in innovation, policy, and financing as critical levers for achieving impact.

CGI: A “FORCE MULTIPLIER” AMONG CHIEF SUSTAINABILITY OFFICERS
As one of the most crucial stakeholders in advancing the global agenda of Climate Action, CGI has built a community of Chief Sustainability Officers across a wide-range of global and regional businesses. We believe the CGI platform can bridge businesses and organizations from long-term commitments to short- and medium-term actions that can accelerate progress for a sustainable planet.
Participants include representatives from Amazon, Deloitte, Ford, Google, Mastercard, and many more.
