Vision

We envision a future where every community, regardless of race, income, or location, has access to what it needs to thrive: clean air and water, safe housing, quality education, economic opportunities, and a meaningful voice in the decisions that shape their lives.

Goals

1. 1.Our goal is to strengthen community-based civil society organizations with the tools, data, and partnerships they need to document and address the challenges facing women and girls by advancing locally led approaches that center equity and expand access to opportunity. We build the capacity of members to inform policies and practices that create lasting, transformative change.
2. 2.The goal of the Climate Change Makers program is to help communities understand climate change health impacts, prepare for extreme weather, and take meaningful climate action through creative expression, digital tools, and community engagement to transform climate anxiety into preparedness, leadership, and collective action.
3. 3.Expand and scale ACESWorld’s SDG Resource Library to increase access to curated scholarly and practical resources organized by SDG targets and regions. By making 4,000+ resources accessible to community-based organizations, we support justice-centered, community-driven sustainable development.
