About us
Who we are
The Climate Governance Initiative empowers board directors on every continent to take climate action by enhancing their knowledge and skills in climate governance. Our rapidly-growing network of Chapters in over 70 countries worldwide reaches more than 100,000 board directors.
Our culture and values
Our values underpin everything we do. We are impact focused, collaborative and entrepreneurial in spirit.
- Impact focused – We are highly motivated to make a difference through effective climate governance, using impact as a lens for our decision making.
- Collaborative – We work with others who share our goals to achieve our mission, valuing the importance of collaboration over competition.
- Entrepreneurial – We are fast acting, creative and learn from our actions and those of others.
All Chapters have signed up to our Charter, and commit to upholding the values of the Climate Governance Initiative.
Equality, diversity and inclusion policy
The principles of diversity, inclusion, respect, responsibility and sustainability are at the heart of our organisation.
We want to support our colleagues to balance their personal and professional lives and we believe our range of benefits encourages this.
We are proud to be an equal opportunities employer and we are committed to ensuring that all candidates and employees are given the same opportunity to succeed regardless of their sex, sexual orientation, marital status, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion, age or disability. We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment where all employees can thrive and we encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds, experiences and communities, and particularly welcome applications from candidates from Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ candidates, candidates with disabilities, and from backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in the charity sector. We're also dedicated to ensuring our recruitment processes are fair and accessible to all.
