The Funders Commitment to Climate Action
Location: Online
Facilitator: Esther Whitehead
Host: Centre for Social Impact
Cost: Free
Join Climate Action Aotearoa co-lead Esther Whitehead for a kōrero on how funders and changemakers across Aotearoa are stepping up to take climate action through the Funders Commitment on Climate Action. This session will explore how the Climate Action Aotearoa network is supporting the sector with practical tools, shared learning, and collective impact reporting — including a new system for tracking climate-related funding, and a move toward greater transparency on emissions and net-zero targets.
Whether you’re a funder or a not-for-profit (big or small), this session will be packed with insights, resources, and ways to connect with others on the same journey.
Esther brings to Climate Action Aotearoa her experience in climate strategy, emissions reduction planning, and sustainability initiatives for medium to large organisations. She was the founder of Sustainable Queenstown Community Trust, Dishrupt(TM) and KiwiHarvest Queenstown and is an associate with the Centre for Social Impact.
