Climbing has the power to transform communities.

Around the world, climbing is growing in places with immense potential, but limited access to gear, training, and funding. These barriers restrict who gets to experience the sport and who benefits from its positive economic, social, and environmental ripple effects.

The Global Climbing Initiative is changing that. We work alongside locally led climbing organizations in under-resourced contexts, sharing the tools to strengthen safety, expand access, and unlock opportunity.

Together, we are equipping climbing communities worldwide with the knowledge and resources to thrive.
