How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Integrated Crisis Response
    methodology: integrated-crisis-response
    By addressing climate, nature, and inequality crises simultaneously, we enable a just and inclusive transition to a net-zero economy, because these challenges are interdependent and cannot be solved in isolation.
  • Just Transition Framework
    methodology: just-transition
    By ensuring no individual or community is left behind during the shift to net-zero emissions, we build inclusive economic systems because equity is foundational to long-term environmental and social resilience.
  • Systemic Rule Change for Business
    methodology: systemic-rule-change
    By resetting the rules that govern business behavior, we incentivize sustainable and inclusive business models, because institutional frameworks shape corporate incentives and market outcomes.
