Momentum for Change Call for Proposal

Momentum for Change: Women for Results showcases women-led activities that address climate change. These “lighthouse activities” will demonstrate measurable impact on the ground, and the potential for replicability and scaleability at the local, national and international levels.

Momentum for Change: Women for Results is implemented with the generous support of the Rockefeller Foundation.

The Momentum for Change Advisory Panel will select a small number of lighthouse activities to be recognized during the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Warsaw, Poland from

4. The activity must demonstrate innovation and potential for long-term transformation change;
5. The activity must be the result of an innovative partnership, which aims to achieve scalable, long-term results;
6. The activity must deliver verifiable social and environmental benefits to an identified community, which has been appropriately engaged in the activity development processes;
7. The activity must not be registered or have intentions to register as a CDM or JI activity for the next 2 years.
