About the Grant
The AI for Climate Resilience Program is an initiative launched by Klarna to strengthen climate adaptation in regions most vulnerable to climate change. The program seeks to support pioneering projects that use artificial intelligence (AI) to address urgent climate challenges, particularly in underserved communities. The grant focuses on solutions that build resilience by tackling critical issues such as food security, public health, and coastal protection. Projects are encouraged to combine AI-driven innovation with practical, community-led strategies that translate data and technology into meaningful action. In addition to financial support, grantees will gain access to a network of mentors, training opportunities, and a community of practice to help refine and scale their impact. The initiative places strong emphasis on collaboration, local ownership, and responsible use of AI, creating a platform for both early-stage concepts and advanced solutions to grow. By fostering innovation in climate adaptation, this program empowers local communities to withstand future climate risks while promoting sustainable development.

Proposals must clearly outline the role of AI in delivering solutions, a pathway toward community ownership, and a commitment to collaborative and responsible innovation. Early-stage initiatives are also welcome, especially those requiring technical or implementation support to realize their ideas. The program strongly encourages participation from locally led organizations that prioritize inclusivity, long-term resilience, and tangible climate outcomes. The overall goal is to nurture AI-powered projects that bridge global innovation with local adaptation needs, ensuring that underserved communities are equipped to cope with the intensifying impacts of climate change.
