About the Event

As the world turns its attention to New York City for Climate Week, the Green Leadership Trust (GLT) invites environmental leaders from across the country to a special evening reception: Our Power to Build a Vibrant Democratic Future.

This invitation-only gathering will bring together CEOs, Executive Directors, and board leaders of the nation’s most influential environmental organizations. We will celebrate the diversity and strength of our movement, connect across governance leadership, and strategize for the challenges ahead.

Over music, hors d’oeuvres, and conversation, we will reflect on people-centered, justice-rooted approaches to protecting our environment and shaping an inclusive, sustainable future.


Why This Matters

Environmental organizations stand at a crossroads. While our sector faces unprecedented political and cultural attacks, it is also rich with possibility. GLT believes that elevating and supporting People of the Global Majority into board and C-Suite roles is both an act of resistance and a catalyst for transformative change.

By gathering governance leaders during Climate Week, we strengthen our collective resilience, forge solidarity across organizations, and build new pathways for equitable leadership in the movement.

Hosted by

Green Leadership Trust – a network of board members and senior leaders committed to advancing equity, justice, and inclusive leadership across the environmental sector.
