The Female Climate Scientists Fund

Daughters for Earth is a fund and a movement to support, celebrate, and mobilize women-led climate solutions to protect and restore Earth.

We are launching a $5 million fund to support female scientists to communicate their expertise in climate science beyond the scientific community - and inspire large-scale action for change.

The fund aims to provide the resources and opportunities needed for female scientists to share their expertise in climate science and solutions with the wider public. In particular, the goal is to shift scientists' communication of their hard data and proven results from labs and science journals into mainstream conversation in order to reach policy makers, schools, media executives and journalists, businesses,and the philanthropic community worldwide.

Though their approach and solutions are more holistic and interconnected, women climate scientists are often not given the opportunity to reach beyond academic publications and the "choirs" of their peers. This fund will upend the typical structures of both funding and thought leadership, positioning women scientists as the leading voices for change - and supporting their capacity to deliver it.
