About Nexus
Who We Are?
We finance climate action in Southeast Asia by working with project partners who are leading environmental sustainability projects focused on clean energy, water solutions and waste management.
Nexus provides technical expertise and a deep understanding of the voluntary carbon markets and impact investing funding models—sometimes difficult or impossible to obtain by local on-the-ground operations.
The Challenge
Climate change disproportionately affects low-income communities in developing countries, and limited access to clean water, energy, and waste management exacerbates the problem. This creates a cycle of environmental and social challenges, as these communities often lack the resources and infrastructure to adapt to and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Our Mission
Nexus for Development is an international non-profit organisation, with a mission to urgently mobilize carbon and impact finance to scale enterprises in Asia that benefit both people and planet
Our Impact
Our Priority SDGs
At Nexus for Development we believe all organisations have a responsibility to work towards a more sustainable future for all. Our work is aligned with a number of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
