Green politics is a necessity now more than ever. The world needs politics that connects ecological and economic crises, treats social justice and climate action as inseparable, and offers a credible alternative to politics-as-usual.

We at Green Forum understand that Green Parties often lack resources to turn their vision into political reality. This is where Green Forum can support — and why partnerships matter now more than ever.

If you are an organisation with a defined Green political agenda, you might be eligible to become a Green Forum partner.

Who we are

We are a political foundation affiliated with the Swedish Greens on a mission to accelerate the transition to sustainable democratic societies that live within the limits set by nature. We are based in Sweden but part of the international Green community, working with partners across more than 50 countries since 1995.

Recognising that historical power imbalances in traditional donor structures are often shaped by colonial legacies, we actively work to shift decision-making authority to local actors, challenging donor-driven agendas and treating local ownership not as a principle to declare but as a practice to uphold.

Our approach rests on the following pillars:

We prioritise long-term partnerships over short-term project grants because lasting change is built on trust, continuity, and shared purpose — not short-term project cycles. Partnering with Green Forum means ongoing dialogue and collaboration to increase the political influence of your organisation through organisational strengthening initiatives.

Who are you?

We are looking for Green political organisations with the ambition to grow their political influence. To be considered, applicants must:

• Demonstrate a clear commitment to Green political values, principles, and activities
• Be a registered Green political party, political foundation, think-tank, or civil society organisation with political ambition
• Be based in or directly working in a DAC country or countries
• Have a demonstrated track record of political or civic organising
• Engage in a relationship of mutual accountability, transparency, and co-development

Partners are selected upon a careful assessment of shared values, organisational maturity, programme relevance, and potential for impact. All funding decisions are made transparently and in line with our sub-granting and partnership principles.

What we support

We support Green political organisations to grow stronger, more sustainable, and have bigger political influence. We support programmes built around:

Partnerships can vary in terms of type as well as scope of funding.

What support do we provide?

Green Forum offers a range of support to partners to accelerate change and impact:

Working in politically sensitive context

Green movements often operate in environments where political work carries real risk — from legal restrictions on civil society, to harassment, to outright repression. We do not shy away from these contexts.

If your organisation operates in a sensitive or restrictive political environment, you can expect from us full adherence to confidentiality, security and risk management, and flexible and adaptive programming.
