The Climate Ready Initiative
What is the Climate Ready Initiative?
The Climate Ready Initiative (CRI) is a partnership-based social impact initiative that works with society to help shape a prosperous and just future for all. We seek to enable climate action by unlocking the economic and social development pathways that value net-zero emissions and climate resilience.
The CRI is a key pillar of the Griffith Climate Action Beacon. The CRI builds on decades of trusted climate action and development partnerships and engagements in Australia, the Asia Pacific Region and Internationally.
The challenge
Climate change is happening now and requires urgent action that can deliver sustainable development. This challenge has a clear problem, clear demand, and a clear need.
Problem
Our economic, social and environmental systems are facing unprecedented risks and opportunities.
Demand
Almost all sectors and communities of society are calling for climate action to ensure a sustainable, secure and prosperous future.
Need
Ensure society is sufficiently organised and prepared to deal with the complex and wide-spanning impacts of climate change.
Our flagship project
Australia needs a collective plan to become climate ready. Climate Ready Australia 2030 brings together partners from across society to develop a shared agenda for climate action that can be translated into real transformative action.
Opportunity
The Climate Ready Initiative presents a unique opportunity for society to work together on shaping a better future for all. With the right platform, we can enable the engagement, leadership, influence and value needed to realise this opportunity.
Engage with this opportunity
A clear and legitimate platform from which society can engage with and collaborate on climate action.
Influence our future
A chance to influence what an effective and just climate ready future looks like.
Create new value
A unique moment in time to align economic, social and environmental values.
