Climate change is a threat multiplier that will render its greatest impacts upon frontline communities. ACCO is convening willed and skilled practitioners to establish a program that builds upon ACCO (and other) training/credentialing programs with investments in neighborhood scale projects in frontline communities.

Join forces with peer practitioners and help ACCO shape a program that:

  • Builds a climate-smart workforce with project skills in frontline communities; and

  • Facilitates public-private partnerships that drive micro-development projects in clean energy, microgrids, urban farming, tree canopy and solar broadband.
