About the Asia Climate Philanthropy Advisory
Asia faces urgent climate risks — with potential economic losses of USD 57 billion and up to 200 million more people pushed into poverty by 2040. Yet only 2% of global philanthropic funding goes to climate, and just 12% of that reaches Asia.
The Asia Climate Philanthropy Advisory (ACPA) is the first initiative of its kind in the region in bringing together Asia’s leading philanthropists to drive greater climate giving and advocacy.
Backed by visionary donors and climate foundations, ACPA helps philanthropists turn intent into impact — through expert guidance, curated giving opportunities, and a vibrant community of climate actors across Asia.
With a strategic market focus on high-potential regional hubs such as Hong Kong and Singapore— characterised by a critical base of ecosystem intermediaries, robust financial infrastructures, and a high density of ultra-high-net-worth-individuals, ACPA delivers:
- Bespoke advisory - one-to-one and group support for climate giving strategies
- High-integrity knowledge – tailored insights on climate and intersectional issues
- Curated opportunities – vetted portfolios aligned with donor priorities
- Connected community – peer learning and collaboration across the climate ecosystem.
The ACPA is initially hosted by Tara Climate Foundation, serving as its incubating partner in Asia and together are building a new generation of Asian philanthropists leading the charge on climate action.
