Watershed Moments - Conversations with Raintree
What if we stopped funding symptoms and started restoring systems?
Across the world, we're seeing the consequences of fragmented approaches to climate, biodiversity, water security, livelihoods, and community wellbeing. Yet some of the most promising solutions are emerging from a different way of thinking: place-based, long-term, and community-led.
On 25 June, we're hosting an informal breakfast conversation with Leena Dandekar and the team from Raintree Foundation.
Raintree is working across the Western Ghats, one of the world's most important biodiversity hotspots, to restore watersheds, strengthen community resilience, protect biodiversity, improve livelihoods, and build climate resilience through a landscape approach.
This isn't a presentation or fundraising event.
It's an opportunity for philanthropists, foundations, family offices, impact investors, and systems thinkers to explore a critical question:
How do we create the conditions for lasting environmental and social resilience at scale?
We'll hear insights from Raintree's work on watershed restoration and then open the conversation to others working across philanthropy, climate, nature, and impact.
If you're interested in catalytic philanthropy, place-based investing, landscape restoration, regenerative development, or funding systems change, we'd love to have you join us.
