Join the GW Climate and Health Institute on Dec. 9, 2025 from 11:30 -1:00 p.m. EST for a virtual report release webinar celebrating the release of the new report FLIP the Script: The Free, Local, Immediate, and Persuasive Co-Benefits of Climate Action.
The FLIP Report introduces a new framework emphasizing the Free, Local, Immediate, and Persuasive co-benefits of climate action. Through 22 global case studies, the report “flips” the script on the notion that climate action is costly or distant, demonstrating how its benefits can be felt locally and immediately. The report provides actionable insights for key stakeholders, including policymakers, advocates, researchers, and journalists, on how to apply the FLIP framework in practice.
Come hear insights directly from a panel of co-benefit practitioners from our highlighted case studies who drive co-benefit solutions around the world, as well as representatives from leading organizations in the space — C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, Wellcome, and the Clean Air Fund. This report was prepared by the George Washington University’s Climate and Health Institute with additional support from the GW Alliance for a Sustainable Future, and is co-hosted by C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group and the Clean Air Fund.
