GGRF Best Practices Pledge and Equity Alliance
The Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund Equity Alliance is a group of organizations with deep experience in environmental, economic, and racial justice. We came together in March 2023 to draw on our policy expertise and collective on-the-ground experience in working in green finance and environmental justice and equity-focused programs to ensure that the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) is implemented in a way that centers environmental justice communities.

The objective of the GGRF Equity Alliance is to ensure that environmental justice and community-based organizations, representing and made up of frontline communities, are able to have decision-making power in how and where the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) is deployed so that impacted communities are directly benefited.
