Landmark Case Studies (Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation)

Designation as a Landmark (best practice) case study through our peer selection process recognizes programs and social marketing approaches considered to be among the most successful,innovative, replicable and adaptable in the world. Nominations are screened by Tools of Change staff and the most promising ones are then rated by peer selection panels based on a standard scoring grid.

The Programs and Case Studies

Twelve case studies have been designated by our Climate Change Panel since 2021. Our most recent ones are bolded.

The Panelists

These case studies were designated by our Climate Change Peer-Selection Panel, which is made up of members from on-the-ground programs as well as from some of North America's most proactive NGO and government organizations supporting climate change mitigation and adaptation. Those in italics are currently serving on the panel.
