2022-2023 ANNUAL REPORT

Never before has the work of the Tishman Center been more urgently needed. With record global temperatures, continued struggles for environmental justice, and growing political uncertainty, our mission and community-centered approach are uniquely suited to meet this consequential moment. The Tishman Center’s accomplishments in 2023 underline the impact of our organization and highlight our dedication to equitable and justice-centered principles.

In 2023, our growing team focused on our deep ecosystem of relationships across four critical sectors — academia, environmental and climate justice, philanthropy, and government. We deepened connections, moved resources to the movement, impacted policy, and advanced climate solutions. Since the Biden-Harris Administration, the Tishman Center has contributed research and community support for Justice40, the Inflation Reduction Act, the Climate & Economic Justice Screening Tool, and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA).

The Tishman Center was invited to join UNITE-EJ, a coalition of partners led by the Climate Justice Alliance, which was awarded $50 million by EPA to serve as a National Grantmaker for Thriving Communities Grantmaking Program. The Tishman Center is excited to join the coalition and will provide program evaluation, tracking, and reporting to support the Western US (EPA Regions 8-10). This grant and others were proposed during the BluePrint Section of the Frontlines Communities First Federal Funding Design Lab, co-hosted by our EJ Fellowship in January 2023 in Washington, D.C.
