A clear starting point
for thoughtful climate giving

For many philanthropists in Asia, climate can feel too broad, scattered, and hard to enter. We help them make sense of it, find a clear starting point, and give in ways that are thoughtful and informed.

We support philanthropists wherever they are in their climate giving journey. Our support may include:

One-on-one guidance

We help you clarify what matters to you, where you want to make a difference, and how climate connects to your values.

Relevant giving opportunities

We identify credible climate initiatives that match your goals and are ready for support.

Trusted connections

We connect you with people and organisations across Asia and beyond who can help you learn, give, and act with confidence.

How we support donors

There is no single pathway into impactful climate philanthropy. Philanthropists and foundations can engage with ACPA at different starting points and for different objectives. Our support is structured around six core engagement areas, depending on each donor’s needs and time horizon.

Learning and exploration for donors beginning their climate journey

Strategy development and thought partnership

Clear pathways and credible entry points for climate engagement

Connections to trusted practitioners and peers across Asia

Ongoing guidance as philanthropic approaches evolve

Climate philanthropy is a long-term journey.

We support donors beyond initial engagement through ongoing learning, reflection, and portfolio evolution as opportunities and priorities evolve.

How we work
with solution partners

We work with individuals and organisations across Asia that are developing locally grounded climate solutions. Our role is to help make credible solutions visible and accessible to philanthropy.

Identifying credible solutions

We look for solutions that are grounded in real-world practice and supported by organisations that have the expertise, and resources to deliver meaningful impact. We use our trusted networks, ecosystem insight, and ongoing research to identify promising initiatives.

Understanding the wider ecosystem

Climate solutions rarely stand alone. We listen closely to what matters to each donor, then help them make sense of the wider ecosystem, where different organisations contribute in different but complementary ways.

Aligning solutions with philanthropic intent

When opportunities emerge, we help frame them in terms that potential investors and givers will understand. This includes clarifying the problem being addressed, the pathway to impact, and the role philanthropic capital can play. Where appropriate, we introduce philanthropists to organisations whose work aligns with their interests and priorities.

Our goal is not to spotlight a single organisation, but to help philanthropists understand the broader landscape of solutions and where their support can be most meaningful.
