In alignment with United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres’ call to address the urgent issue of extreme heat, the Trafigura Foundation is proud to join the call to action convened by the ClimateWorks Foundation.
The organisation has brought together a coalition of philanthropies that will invest an initial USD 50 million in climate adaptation and resilience efforts, specifically targeting regions most impacted by extreme heat and other climate-related stresses.
This initiative represents a pivotal step in addressing the impacts of extreme heat and underscores the Trafigura Foundation’s dedication to advancing climate resilience on a global scale.
Extreme heat poses a severe threat to millions of farmers and workers worldwide, disproportionately affecting vulnerable communities in the Global South and disrupting global supply chains. The Trafigura Foundation is committed to tackling this crisis through collaborative action and substantial financial investments aimed at enhancing climate resilience and adaptation. By partnering with experienced organisations and deploying locally tailored solutions, we strive to empower communities to navigate and thrive amidst these challenges.
