Year established: March 2023 Website: climatewhistleblowers.org Region: International Organisation Bio: Climate Whistleblowers (CW) is a non-profit dedicated to protecting and supporting individuals who disclose information on wrongdoings that worsen the climate crisis. Our goal is to maximise the impact of their disclosures and put an end to such practices. Through its network of lawyers, journalists, and activists, CW empowers professionals all over the world to speak up. CW published large-scale stories, such as the investigative series GreenFakes on manipulated environmental assessments by audit firms, and Polina Zabrodskaya’s whistleblowing on greenwashing in the advertising industry. The whistleblowers CW has supported have been exposed to harassment, legal reprisals, and intimidation. We have defended them every step of the way and brought their disclosures to public attention. Work on whistleblowing: Protecting whistleblowers is at the heart of CW’s mandate. As the climate crisis worsens and impunity for environmental crimes remains high, CW aims to enhance accountability by defending whistleblowers. CW provides secure communication channels and ensures anonymity when necessary, thereby minimising the risks of reprisals. It strategically litigates and advocates on their behalf, ensuring their impact is maximised. Climate Whistleblowers’ success relies on three pillars: the whistleblowers who come for our help, whether physically, financially, psychologically or legally, through specific and targeted support based on their field of work and geographical areas. Investigate and amplify whistleblowers’ disclosures by exposing malpractices in the media and pushing strategic litigation, in order to enhance climate accountability. Our guiding principle is that every story we share reaches the relevant audience and helps change corporate and government. Educate and advocate for better whistleblower protection — while climate whistleblowing is essential, it is still not well known or understood. CW informs the public by publishing articles, raising awareness, and training professionals and organisations to actively support whistleblowers.
