The Climate Equity Collaborative (CEC) is a public-private partnership that engages nontraditional partners, with emphasis on our youth and underserved communities, in climate innovation and climate action.
We believe that addressing the climate crisis while building an equitable and sustainable world will take the coordinated efforts of all sectors of the economy; nonprofit organizations of various sizes, missions, and locations; and governmental agencies and representatives at all levels. Too often, these different spheres of society lack coordination and shared responsibilities, and it is our aim to use the public-private-partnership approach to create more linkages, conversations, and collaborative opportunities to reach climate goals while also lifting up youth and frontline communities.
