Summary
The Global Resilience Partnership (GRP) 2024–2029 Strategy outlines a framework to advance climate resilience by focusing on three transformative opportunities: food systems, finance flows, and community-led action. The strategy aims to shift from fragmented, Global North-led approaches toward locally-led adaptation and systemic collaboration, targeting high-vulnerability regions in the Global South.
Key insights
- The GRP has identified three primary opportunities for transformative climate resilience: food, finance, and communities, with gender and youth serving as cross-cutting focal points.
- The strategy defines four long-term outcomes: transforming food and financial systems; scaling innovative formal and informal collaborations; increasing inclusive transdisciplinary learning; and embedding resilience within the private and financial sectors.
- GRP aims to transform food systems by focusing on the four pillars of food security—availability, access, utilisation, and stability—while restoring biodiversity and integrating scientific, local, and traditional knowledge.
- The partnership seeks to reimagine finance flows by increasing funding for locally led adaptation and shifting from a predominantly mitigation-focused, Global North-driven model to one that utilizes blended finance and novel insurance products.
- GRP is shifting its approach to community engagement, moving away from treating communities as passive 'beneficiaries' and instead placing them at the heart of decision-making to ensure equity and justice.
- The organization has adopted a specific linguistic policy to avoid terms like 'vulnerable people' or 'marginalised,' arguing that such language removes agency; instead, they specify what a group is vulnerable to (e.g., 'vulnerable to flooding').
- Over its first decade, GRP has invested over USD 45 million in resilience programming across the Global South, supporting 7 million people across 16 countries and providing capacity building to over 1,500 organisations.
