Climate change threatens many of our early childhood goals, including children’s physical and mental health, family well-being, and school readiness. At the same time, young children are incredibly valuable in the climate fight because of how their healthy development is entwined with a healthy, climate-resilient society.

Join the Early Childhood Funders Collaborative, Health and Environmental Funders Network, Children, Youth and Family Funders Roundtable and Capita to learn more about the crossroads of climate change and early childhood development, ways early childhood-focused philanthropies can engage with the climate to further their missions, and how a climate frame can open up early childhood to a powerful new set of investments.

This webinar is open to all funders and philanthropy organizations.
