We bridge the gap between high-impact development and climate projects and private capital to accelerate progress towards the SDGs and the Paris Agreement

Invest in Impact: ready. connect. scale.

The climate crisis is accelerating—but with it comes a powerful opportunity. The same is true for development and aid: where challenges grow, so do the chances to drive real, lasting impact. And with major donors shrinking, this opportunity extents to support of the SDGs too.

As funding shifts and barriers to invest fall, we unlock catalytic finance and private capital drive real change and scale social, environmental impact aligned with profit in growth markets.

Funding Shortfall

Insufficient donor and government funds to meet ambitious global goals.

Access Barriers

Many development/aid projects aren’t structured to receive innovative or private financing.

Investor Dilemma

Impact investors struggle to find credible, “investment-ready” projects that align with their mission.

About us

Human Planet is an impact accelerator designed to transform promising development, aid, and climate projects into investment-ready opportunities in a fully localized manner—one that avoids funder-owned strategies which often create power imbalances between donors and grantees, prioritizing short-term, measurable results over lasting impact. Our platform accelerates project preparation and connects projects directly with private capital providers, ensuring long-term, community-driven solutions.

 

Our Mission

  • Provide innovative finance solutions and investment capacity-building support, allowing projects to attract non-grant funding such as impact investments and blended finance.
  • Offer a structured, fast-track process for project pitches to curated groups of private investors, foundations, development finance institutions, and family offices.

Why This Matters

  • Unlock new, scalable funding pathways beyond traditional grants.
  • Allow funders and investors to directly invest in high-impact projects or project portfolios.
  • Complement and not replace critical donor and taxpayer-based funding where it’s still needed.

Let’s make a difference.
