Equator Prize 2024:
Nature for Climate
Action | | |
Greetings from the UNDP
Equator Initiative in New
York.
Given your work on
climate, nature and sustainable development
issues, we thought you might be well positioned to
nominate eligible groups or get this message into
the hands of interested
organizations.
The Equator Prize 2024
will be awarded to outstanding community and
Indigenous initiatives that are advancing
nature-based solutions for local sustainable
development. The winners will join a prestigious
network of 285 leading community-based
organizations from 89 countries that have been
awarded the Equator Prize since 2002. Each Equator
Prize winner will receive USD 10,000 and will be
supported to participate virtually in a series of
policy dialogues and special events in the later
part of 2024.
We hope to appeal for
your support in two key areas:
-
Nominate
communities that are
innovating and advancing creative nature-based
solutions for climate mitigation, climate
adaptation and resilience, and a just
transition.
-
Circulate
this
announcement amongst your
partners and contacts, encouraging them to
submit nominations and share the call for
nominations with their networks, including
through social media by sharing the Equator
Initiative posts on X (@equatorinit),
Facebook (@equatorinitiative)
or Instagram (@equatorinitiative).
We encourage you to post about the call for
nominations using this Trello
board.
