.png)
The Giving Green Fund plans to award a restricted grant to the Institute for Governance & Sustainable Development (IGSD) for its campaign to stop “environmental dumping” of new inefficient cooling equipment. IGSD is a US-based nonprofit focused on slowing near-term warming as quickly as possible.
IGSD falls within our philanthropic strategy of supporting an energy transition in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Please see Giving Green’s deep dive report for more information, including risks and potential co-benefits, recommended sub-strategies, theory of change, funding need, and key uncertainties.
