Jonas Philanthropies Announces Funding for Twelve Nature-based Climate Solutions
New York, NY, March 5, 2025 – Jonas Nursing, in partnership with LIFT Economy, is pleased to announce funding for twelve community-led nature-based solutions (NbS) to climate change. These initiatives embody an equity-centered approach to environmental resilience, recognizing that frontline communities must be at the heart of effective climate action.
As climate disasters intensify globally, the need for holistic, systems-based environmental strategies has never been more urgent. This funding targets areas that have been historically underutilized in the efforts to develop climate solutions, including conservation hydrology, human health nexus, rewilding, and more.
