The Decisive Decade
HALF TIME
Greenings and its partner networks are convening pivotal actors across the climate space to produce a rigorous half-time update to the Decisive Decade Report. This initiative assesses the current trajectory of global climate efforts, seeking to resolve fragmented participation and establish practical mechanisms to shift the field from incremental to catalytic collaboration through 2030.
-
Assessing the fragmented and uneven participation across business, civil society, and government. This involves mapping the distinct functions organisations execute—classified within the "Decisive Seven" framework—to comprehensively evaluate the state of the climate action field. It also necessitates analysing how competing conceptual frames and isolated funding practices currently impede systemic alignment.
-
Proposing mechanisms to transition from incremental to catalytic collaboration through the development of a shared narrative, active trust-building, and strengthened accountability. This requires integrating environmental, developmental, and health perspectives into a unified vision to motivate action. Furthermore, it involves establishing concrete organisational guardrails and redesigning measurement systems to ensure rigorous, verifiable progress.
-
Supporting philanthropic institutions to leverage their structural positions to orchestrate relationships across the broader climate action ecosystem. Strategic guidance involves shifting toward inclusive, collective funding practices that prioritise cross-sector partnerships rather than individual organisations. It additionally emphasises allocating capital to experimental solutions that build long-term resilience and capacity across diverse, often underrepresented, geographic regions
