This address is a suite or unit (STE 706). Organizations that share one are often clients of the same office-services firm, accountant or registered agent rather than related to each other.

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

• CLIMATE CHANGE, ENERGY AND LOW-CARBON DEVELOPMENT:TO AVOID CATASTROPHIC CLIMATE CHANGE, SOCIETY NEEDS TO BOTH END ITS DEPENDENCE ON FOSSIL FUELS AND PURSUE LOW-EMISSION DEVELOPMENT THROUGH SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT, INCLUDING AGROFORESTRY, ECOSYSTEM CONSERVATION AND RESTORATION, AND A TRANSITION TO SUSTAINABLE ECONOMY MODELS.ALL CIFOR-ICRAF RESEARCH CONTRIBUTES TO CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION AND ADAPTATION BY HELPING TO KEEP TREES IN THE GROUND, INCREASE TREE COVER, AND FIND THE BEST TREE SPECIES FOR LOCAL CONDITIONS. THE 'CLIMATE TEAM'S' RESEARCH FOCUSES ON FORESTS CONSERVATION, ON REDUCING EMISSIONS FROM DEFORESTS AND FOREST DEGRADATION (REDD+), ON THE SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF FORESTS AND WETLANDS, ON DEVELOPING SUSTAINABLE BIOENERGY SOLUTIONS, AND ON BIOECONOMY TRANSITIONS. CONSERVING AND SUSTAINABLY MANAGING CARBON-DENSE PEATLANDS AND WETLANDS IS ONE LARGE AREA OF OUR WORK. THROUGH ALL OF THIS, WE AIM TO SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF EFFECTIVE, COST-EFFICIENT, AND EQUITABLE CLIMATE POLICIES AND PRACTICES.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
