National Stakeholders Identification (US)

[GCRI]

Welcome to the National Stakeholders Identification Thread for the United States!
This thread identifies and maps key stakeholders across sectors to support climate action, disaster risk reduction (DRR), biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development efforts in the United States. We aim to engage relevant actors to mobilize climate finance and strengthen partnerships for the Global Risks Forum 2025 and other global frameworks, including the Santiago Network for Loss and Damage.

How You Can Contribute: Identify Stakeholders Across the Quintuple Helix Framework
1- Academia and Research: Universities, think tanks, and research institutions focusing on sustainability, climate policy, DRR, and biodiversity in the United States.
Example: Institutions like Stanford University, Harvard University, and think tanks such as the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

2- Industry and Business: Corporations, startups, and financial institutions involved in renewable energy, green technologies, and climate finance.
Example: Companies like Tesla, green tech startups, financial institutions offering sustainable investment funds, and corporations committing to net-zero emissions.

3- Civil Society and NGOs: Non-profits, advocacy groups, and community organizations working on conservation, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development.
Example: NGOs like the Sierra Club, Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), and grassroots organizations promoting local climate resilience.

4- Government and Public Sector: Federal, state, and local government agencies involved in climate policy, environmental regulations, and disaster management.
Example: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Department of Energy, and state environmental protection offices.

5- Natural Environment: Organizations managing ecosystems, protected areas, and promoting biodiversity conservation across the United States.
