Resources Legacy Fund aims to create a just and resilient world for both people and nature. They focus on forming alliances to leverage philanthropy, knowledge, and expertise, aiming to foster environmental outcomes, equity, and justice. They prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion in their efforts, aiming to support marginalized communities and enhance long-term capabilities within these groups.
The Resources Legacy Fund Grantmaking Opportunity directs its funding towards initiatives that embody principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, specifically targeting efforts that have been overlooked or marginalized. Their grantmaking focuses on a range of program areas including Climate & Energy, Healthy & Resilient Communities, International Conservation, Ocean, Coast & Fisheries, Public Funding & Policy, Social Justice & Equity, and Western Land Conservation & Restoration. The goal is to alter the understanding, development, and implementation of environmental solutions by fostering diverse alliances and co-creating with those typically left out of decision-making processes.
