Questions for your Board

This tool is designed to help non-profit boards address climate change by facilitating structured board discussions and reflections on climate-related risks and opportunities. It includes a series of thought-provoking questions for individual reflection and group discussions. Using the OKR (Objectives and Key Results) framework, boards can set clear goals and track progress in integrating climate considerations into their planning.
