Clinton Global Initiative
Creating a community of doers who are taking action on the world’s most pressing challenges, together
About
The Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) brings together established and emerging global leaders to create and implement solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges. CGI works with partners to develop Commitments to Action — new, specific, and measurable actions in climate resilience, health equity, and inclusive economic recovery and growth.
TAking action together
President Bill Clinton launched CGI in 2005 to turn ideas into action — creating a new space where leaders across sectors could commit publicly to form unlikely partnerships and take action together. Since then, partners in the CGI community have made more than 3,800 Commitments to Action that have made an impact in the lives of over 435 million people in more than 180 countries.
APPROACH
CGI convenes, connects, and catalyzes leaders in government, business, philanthropy, grassroots organizations, media, and academia to commit to take action.

Impact
At the Clinton Foundation, we believe data should be used to guide how programs are designed and implemented. We leverage both quantitative and qualitative information in order to promote evidence-based decision-making and help the Foundation and our community of partners achieve greater results in people’s lives across the country and around the world.

Commitments to Action
Commitments to Action are new, specific, and measurable plans that address global challenges. Commitments 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.
