To address climate change and its effects, organisations, individuals and charities can apply for grants to support projects that develop and promote sustainable, low-carbon alternatives to the current consumerist and growth-based economic model. Grants are available for projects that address the current unsustainable economic system; excessive consumerism; giving marginalised groups and young activists a voice; and responding to the dual harms of Covid-19 and systemic racism. Previous grants awarded have ranged from a few hundred pounds to grants in excess of £100,000. The funding is being made available through the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust – Sustainable Futures programme will fund campaigns, initiatives and projects that promote alternatives to consumerism and give a voice to young activists and marginalised groups on issues of economic and environmental justice. To apply, organisations need to register with the Trust’s grants management system. The deadline to register is the 14th March 2023 and the deadline to apply is 5pm on the 28th March 2023.
