What are Commitments to Action?
Our “community of doers” partner to develop CGI Commitments to Action — new, specific, and measurable projects and programs to advance climate resilience, economic inclusion, health equity, humanitarian response, women and girls’ equality, and more.
Browse Commitments
Commitments to Action are made, implemented, and tracked by partners. CGI is a program dedicated forging new partnerships, providing technical support, and elevating compelling models with potential to scale. CGI does not directly fund or implement these projects.
