Funding diverse levers of change, championing collaboration
We grant and deploy capital through strategic collaboration, using our local knowledge, expertise and data-driven insights to maximise benefits for people, communities and economies within the region.
The climate crisis is complex and multifaceted, with no one organisation or individual able to achieve the massive transformation needed in Asia or globally.
That’s why we believe in the power of collaboration – working with civil society, government, and the private sector to unlock opportunities and build a just, sustainable and thriving future.
• Funding diverse levers of change: Our philanthropic and grant-making efforts support partners across a broad range of activities – from undertaking new research and developing decarbonisation strategies to strengthening community resilience and engaging with corporations, governments, and the public.
• Championing collaboration: Our team of regional experts convene meetings and play a proactive role in building and strengthening networks to encourage and drive collaboration between partners. Moreover, we work closely with purpose-driven foundations and other stakeholders to align strategies and pool resources, always with a distinct focus on Asia.
Our Focus Areas
Together with our partners, we focus our efforts on areas where our collective efforts can create the most meaningful impact for Asia’s just energy transition.
We concentrate on three interconnected areas: scaling clean energy solutions that power inclusive growth, supporting just energy transition strategies that centre people and communities, and advancing clean industrialisation as an engine of sustainable development.
These focus areas are underpinned by how we work – with an emphasis on fostering the conditions for lasting change. We enable and advance sustainable finance, working with partners and financial institutions to unlock investments in clean energy. We support the development and implementation of ambitious climate goals that keep Asia on track for a just and people-centred energy transition. And we focus on corporate engagement to raise ambition, mobilise resources, and align business action with regional and global climate pathways.
Together, these focus areas define Tara’s approach: grounded in collaboration, focused on local impact, and designed to catalyse positive change for a more prosperous and sustainable future in Asia.
