My Nonprofit Reviews

I joined the Board of The Pacific Institute after observing first-hand their impact on global water resilience through their leadership of Water Resilience Coalition. The quality of their team, the depth and breadth of their insight, and the power of their influence and partnerships drive results.

PI turns insight into action. For more than three decades, they have amassed tremendous expertise and translated this insight into results by: 1) Pioneering breakthrough research, 2) Partnering with decision-makers and implementers to turn insights into powerful policies and practices, and 3) Convening critical influencers such as global corporations and governing agencies to elevate ambitious goals and accelerate action.

In my work within a global water nonprofit, I first encountered The Pacific Institute through a consulting engagement on the links between water and climate. The insights they shared expanded our work. Over three years, I witnessed their leadership in convening and leading the CEO Water Mandate (a part of United Nations Global Compact) and establishing the Water Resilience Coalition. PI is playing a lead role in catalyzing the transformation to resilience.

Water is our most precious - and transformative - resource. Water access and resilience are critical to advancing equity, addressing poverty, enabling gender equality, and accelerating access to education. PI is a key leader in helping us realize these critical ambitions.
