The Climate Breakthrough Award is a global multi-million-dollar, multi-year grant for climate leaders to pursue novel, large-scale climate mitigation efforts that have the potential to significantly reduce global annual greenhouse gas emissions.[1]
Currently at US$3 million for each recipient in addition to funding for capacity building, it is the largest climate action grant for individuals and is considered one of the most distinguished honors in the field.[2][3]
The Award is managed by US-based philanthropy organization Climate Breakthrough, formerly the Climate Breakthrough Project. It first launched in 2016 and has been cited for being a unique model of collaborative and flexible grantmaking.[4][5][6]
Award candidates are scouted and nominated by Climate Breakthrough's network of partners to undergo a vetting process that includes interviews, reference checks, and breakthrough idea exploration.
