Partnerships & Funding

Having grown exponentially over the past couple of months (+87 members within a few weeks), we have decided to expand our Public Relations strategy. This includes reaching out to potential new partners systematically and on a global scale. We are also awaiting official approval of our legal status as a Nonprofit Corporation 501(c)(3) under Texas Law, enabling us to receive public funding as well as tax-deductible private grants.

If you are interested in partnering with or sponsoring the SDG+ Club, please reach out to our External Relations Manager Ottoline by email, Telegram (@ottolinemary), or LinkedIn.

Partnerships


Our cooperation will benefit both parties through...
  • Increased visibility, which can bring about new resources (potential followers, partners, and sources of funding)
  • Exchanging advice and other ideas in each other’s area of expertise
  • Setting up joint projects and events (e.g. our recent talk on Global Earth Day 2023, co-hosted with Living Cities Earth)

We welcome propositions from all types of organizations, located anywhere in the world. Our only requirement is that you share our commitment to sustainability. As a think tank in the making, we are especially keen to form partnerships with research and educational institutions.
Our current partners include:
Living Cities Earth
An interdisciplinary action research network, connecting 10,000 cities and a web of integral experts serving Gaia’s well-being.
Social Systems Lab
A not-for-profit design studio & social innovation lab prototyping and incubating tools for a transforming world. They build open source civic technology to enable deeper connections, better information sharing, and more democratic decision making.
