We engage a broad range of experts with deep knowledge of tropical forests and climate.
FPC leverages multiple actors in different geographies working to halt and reverse tropical deforestation, connecting funders with broader movements that deliver greater impact.
Our Committees
The FPC Committees bring funders, regrantors, and civil society together to ensure the integrity and effectiveness of the collaborative. These groups comprise donor and non-donor representatives to oversee strategy implementation, define investment priorities, and monitor progress against our goals.
