Because a fair ecological transition needs more than capital.
It needs commitment, vision and collective action.
We are the Suma Capital Foundation, dedicated to promoting a just ecological transition for people and Mediterranean territories vulnerable to the climate crisis through knowledge, talent and the building of alliances.
- Mission
Moving towards a sustainable economy requires social cohesion.
The climate crisis does not affect everyone equally. Mediterranean region It suffers a high impact from climate change and associated events such as heat waves, droughts, floods or fires, which put its natural ecosystems at risk, as well as society as a whole.
In this context of climate emergency and growing inequality, the Suma Impact Foundation seeks accelerate systemic changes in the Mediterranean that address everything from energy poverty and citizens' demand for decarbonization to the exploration of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) that increase the climate resilience of territories and communities.
