Partnering for Green Growth and the Global Goals (P4G) Operations Intern

Program Overview

P4G - Partnering for Green Growth and the Global Goals 2030 - contributes to green and inclusive growth in low- and middle-income countries by helping early-stage climate businesses become investment ready and supporting national climate platform connections in food, water and energy systems. Hosted by World Resources Institute and funded by Denmark, the Netherlands and the Republic of Korea, P4G partner countries include Colombia, Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa, Indonesia and Vietnam.

P4G provides grants and technical assistance to early-stage climate businesses within a broader partnership in order to improve their investor readiness. All partnerships are aligned to national priorities as defined in the NDCs and coordinated by each of P4G’s nine government-led P4G National Platforms. The partnerships and the National Platforms engage together on sector specific policy and regulatory changes to enable business growth. P4G captures and mobilizes knowledge around these public-private pathways in order to increase the flow of global climate finance to local climate businesses.
