Gathering at two times on February 24, 2022, people of faith around the world will gather to learn more about how the financial industries have financed the climate’s destructions by investing in the fossil fuel industry, get energized to organize as people of faith to hold asset managers and banks accountable, and commit to bold next steps in their regions.
The campaign will advance the progressive climate movement by amplifying the voices of frontline and Global South faith communities and Indigenous communities, and by aligning religious voices and power with the climate movement’s agenda.
We will showcase moral standards which would then become a public document calling on people of faith around the world to organize around climate finance. These standards will position these leaders to push their institution’s investors.
This will also be a gathering and training of grassroots leaders as they begin to organize in their communities. Part of the summit will be led by frontline community leaders and include training to bridge the gap between frontline leaders and investment leaders, particularly moving into action.
The campaign will be grounded in high-quality theological and spiritual teachings and rituals.
Join the official Launch Call on 24 February at either 9am ET or 7pm ET.
