Resurgence 10X Scale Up
Help us take proven early warning systems 10X
DARAJA is Resurgence’s proven, community-led approach to early warnings, connecting national meteorological agencies, local organisations and communities so people can access, understand and act on trusted weather and climate information before disasters strike.
Climate risks are increasing, and El Niño is already affecting communities around the world. Resurgence is responding now, building on DARAJA’s proven model to reach millions more people across Africa, Asia and beyond.
We’re raising $25 million to scale DARAJA and reach 100 million people by 2030.
The model works. The need is growing. Now we need partners to help us scale.
Support at all levels is welcome.
Why fund Resurgence
A proven model for climate resilience.
We focus on a critical gap in climate adaptation. Forecasts exist, but too often they do not reach or serve the people most at risk.
Our work ensures that information is accessible, trusted, and actionable, particularly for communities in informal settlements and fragile contexts.
Proven impact at scale
A 12:1 benefit-cost ratio, outperforming global benchmarks for climate adaptation
Systems change, not short-term fixes
We strengthen national meteorological agencies and local networks, creating lasting institutional capacity
Award-winning innovation
Six international awards recognising effectiveness and collaboration
Equity at the centre
Our work reaches populations often excluded from conventional early warning systems
Urgency and relevance
Climate shocks are increasing in frequency and intensity, with the greatest impact on those least equipped to respond
Clear path to sustainability
Transitioning from donor funding to government and private sector ownership
Aligned with global priorities
Direct contribution to the UN Early Warnings for All initiative
Every investment does more than support a project. It builds the infrastructure that protects lives for decades to come.
Where your investment goes
We work across three interconnected areas, ensuring impact at both system and community level.
Climate Intelligence Services
Designing and delivering early warning systems that translate complex data into clear, actionable information. Includes DARAJA, data analysis, and risk visualisation.
City Resilience Solutions
Strengthening urban systems through planning, infrastructure, and community engagement. Focused on cities facing increasing climate pressure.
Consultation and Training
Building long-term capacity through workshops, advisory services, and tailored programmes. Ensuring local institutions can sustain and scale impact independently.
Cross-cutting investment areas
- Fragile and conflict-affected contexts
- Extreme heat action planning
- Technology and AI integration for climate services
- Research and innovation
We prioritise investments that unlock scale, strengthen systems, and create long-term resilience rather than short-term outputs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to some commonly asked questions.
What types of funding do you accept?
We work with multi-year unrestricted funding, programme-specific grants, research funding, and strategic partnerships across sectors.
How do you ensure funding leads to measurable impact?
All programmes are supported by robust monitoring and evaluation frameworks, including baseline and endline data, community feedback, and continuous learning loops.
Do you work with private sector partners?
Yes. We collaborate with technology providers, telecom companies, and other private sector organisations to scale impact and improve delivery.
How quickly can programmes be implemented?
This depends on context, but we prioritise scalable models and partnerships that allow for rapid deployment where urgency is highest.
