How multistakeholder models are addressing climate and nature transitions2. Identifying focus areas suited to 4P models3. Identifying high-potential focus areas for 4P models4. Six deep dives into solutions for climate and natureAppendix A: MethodologyAppendix B: The 4P models reviewedBibliography1The role of public–private–philanthropic partnerships in driving climate and nature transitionsPrefaceThis report was created by the World Economic Forum (WEF) in collaboration with McKinsey Sustainability. It is part of a growing body of research examining ways to advance a more orderly climate and nature-positive transition.

Our research aims to support the creation, sustenance, and scaling of these partnerships by exploring where to focus their efforts and how to ensure their success. This research was directed by McKinsey senior partners Hamid Samandari in Washington, DC, and Daniel Pacthod in New York; partners Shally Venugopal and Tracy Nowski in Washington, DC; Mekala Krishnan in Boston; Adam Kendall in Nairobi;...
