Building inclusive and resilient communities
Many communities face challenges related to social inequality and climate change. Moody’s helps address these challenges by partnering with and providing grants to organizations working at the local level to build inclusive and resilient communities.
Moody’s has implemented a Disaster Relief Scorecard to respond to natural disasters world-wide. The scorecard, designed in collaboration with our business units, determines an appropriate response for each disaster event, which can include the provision of funds or other material support.
