COMPASS

We envision a world where science helps people and nature thrive together. Compass achieves this vision by preparing scientists to become agents of change. We invest in science leaders that reflect the diversity of society as a whole, creating inclusive, safe, and empowering spaces for learning and transformation. With strategic skills, connections, and support, scientists can advance just, equitable solutions to climate change and biodiversity loss. Since 1999, Compass has supported over 8,000 scientists to communicate about their work and engage beyond lab and field. We've connected them with journalists, policymakers, and community leaders across the United States, when and where it matters, ensuring science has a seat at the table. Our community is our strength. We work within and across a consciously-woven network spanning disciplines, ideologies, sectors, and fields. From our unique vantage point, we spot and open doors that lead to new partnerships and solutions, bringing scientists and communities together to co-create the future.
