It will take all of us to save our climate and biodiversity in an equitable way. It will take policy makers to implement bold new approaches and polluters to be held to account. It will take economies that ensure decent work and operate within planetary boundaries. And it will take people and communities to transform our ways of living. Fair earth living, at its heart, is about a society-wide effort to inspire and create the conditions for people to play, eat, work, dwell and move in new ways to support the future of our planet.

To do this with equity in mind, MakeWay supports community-led solutions with a focus on shifting cultures and behaviours to ensure sustainable ways of living are accessible and affordable to everyone.

We work with partners to:

Support local changemakers and projects on our shared platform working to advance community-led solutions to the climate crisis.
Collaborate with OneEarth and funding partners to help catalyze and amplify better ways of living for justice, nature, and climate.
Advance thought leadership through convenings, research, and international engagement on the opportunities for fair earth living.
