Funding resilience where it matters most
As climate change deepens inequality, hitting the most exposed populations hardest and disrupting the systems that provide essential goods and services, the need for effective adaptation has never been greater.
In response, the Trafigura Foundation funds flexible, community‑driven solutions that enable people and ecosystems to adapt to climate impacts and build long‑term resilience.
Looking ahead, our goal is to mobilise USD 1 billion in adaptation investment so that millions of people can not only cope with climate change, but thrive.
As you explore this site, you will see how our partners are bringing this mission to life by delivering practical, on‑the‑ground solutions where they are needed most.

Messages from the Leadership
Andrew Vickerman
Chairman
As I completed my 10-year tenure with the Trafigura Foundation at the close of 2025, I look back with profound gratitude on a decade of growth, purpose, and impact. Since inception, the Foundation has evolved from a committed philanthropic initiative into a strategic force..
Dario Soto Abril
Executive Director
In 2025, communities navigated mounting environmental pressures amid a rapidly shifting development landscape. Floods, heat, water stress, and ecosystem degradation increas- ingly shaped daily life, while develop- ment funding tightened, and global attention became more fragmented.
