In 2019, I created the International Institute for Climate Justice, as a platform for executive education, professional training and curriculum design. The Institute offers training on a range of issues including climate risk, decarbonization pathways, climate resilience, just transition, and the nexus between climate change and other sustainability issues including gender and human rights. In addition, the program spans public policy finance and the emerging corporate climate leadership, with the content tailored to different sectors and geographies. During the past three years, the training program has been delivered to banks, international development agencies, universities, grassroots organizations, and philanthropies.

The Institute’s signature product is the Climate Justice Leadership Training Program, a 16-24 hour training, delivered in a modular fashion through an intensive two-day workshop. The aim is to participants’ ability to influence public policy and corporate action. Together, we learn to properly diagnose climate risk; develop effective plans to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) pollution and build climate-resilience; and create sophisticated climate advocacy strategies to drive change. It is a mobile program, meaning it is delivered wherever there is demand, a host organization, and a venue suitable for accommodating the training. A variety of learning formats are used to develop the knowledge and skills that are essential to building a new climate economy.
