About San Diego Climate Week

Mission & Vision

Mission

San Diego Climate Week creates space for community-centered collaboration, education, and climate action, amplifying local solutions and advancing climate justice.

Vision

By convening a diverse ecosystem of partners, from community groups to government agencies, we foster accessible, justice-centered opportunities for learning, connection, and collective impact. Every event is designed to move conversations forward with actionable outcomes that will equip communities with the knowledge, resources, and networks needed to empower us all to be a part of San Diego’s climate future. We envision a region where collective climate action is led by shared knowledge, environmental justice, and meaningful collaboration. San Diego Climate Week strives to be a catalyst of equitable solutions by uplifting local leadership, supporting science-based approaches, and ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to participate in shaping a climate-resilient and inclusive future.

Our Team

San Diego Climate Week is made possible by a passionate and cross-sector planning committee bringing together voices from nonprofits, science, business, policy, education, the arts, and more — each playing a vital role in shaping this inaugural week.
