At the Soil & Climate Alliance, we know that no one person, organization, or company can solve these challenges alone. The biggest breakthroughs happen when we work together. That’s why our team is made up of passionate, forward-thinking change-makers with diverse skillsets, united by a shared commitment to regenerating soil, restoring our climate, and rebuilding farm prosperity.
The Soil & Climate Alliance staff team provides ongoing support to the Network and the regenerative agriculture industry as a whole.
To move our collective goals forward, our team focuses on: (1) guiding the Soil & Climate Alliance vision and strategy (2) supporting aligned activity across members of the Network (3) establishing shared measurement practices and key performance indicators (4) building public will and engagement of progress made by the Network (5) advancing policy initiatives through strategic partnerships, and (6) mobilizing funding for the work of the Soil & Climate Alliance.
