210 small steps
towards a new balance.
WHAT IS NOPLANETB?
“our house is on fire, but there is still time to fix this. Either we do that or we don’t.”
– Greta Thunberg
NOPLANETB IS A PROGRAMME TO TACKLE CLIMATE CHANGE co-funded by the European Union through the DEAR programme, with PuntoSud as the lead organisation. In Italy, it is supported by Fondazione Cariplo.
The project involves eight European Union countries: Italy, Portugal, Spain, France, Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Estonia.
The goal is to select 210 small civil society organisations, providing them with financial support and capacity building to promote nature-based solutions and fair transition policies. The focus is on engaging citizens less aware of global challenges, including marginalised and vulnerable groups.

HOW WE OPERATE
NOPLANETB offers funders and civil society organisations an innovative intervention model that enhances partnership and project design processes. It leverages existing ideas, resources, and networks with a systemic approach. Only together can we achieve a positive impact for people, society, and the planet.
DISENGAGED COMMUNITIES
NOPLANETB is committed to supporting projects that effectively engage “disengaged” citizens and institutions, meaning those less sensitive to climate and environmental issues. The aim is to raise awareness about the importance of climate action and encourage sustainable practices within these groups.
A SCIENTIFIC APPROACH
NOPLANETB also aims to build trust in science by promoting a science-based approach. This involves fostering a broad understanding of climate phenomena, encouraging critical thinking, emphasising fact-checking, and engaging the public in science communication activities to make scientific evidence more accessible and relevant to daily life.
WHAT THE MODEL OFFERS
CALL FOR IDEAS
NOPLANETB supports and funds the best climate action initiatives proposed by civil society organisations through selective calls for ideas.
TRAINING
Funded organisations participate in a capacity-building journey through coaching and training activities.
networking
NOPLANETB experiments with a multi-stakeholder partnership model based on co-participation and the consolidation of a network of organisations that share priorities and approaches to action.
