Aug 1, 2023

This vision articulates what the necessary level of cooperation and coordination within the ecosystem entails, and how the multitude of actors that comprise it can work together to realize its full potential in this decisive decade and beyond. This document reflects the innovations that have already occurred within the climate action field, identifies strategic opportunities on the horizon, and describes how the landscape is evolving to advance the goals of the Paris Agreement.
