Our focus areas over the years

We work to address the key challenges at the nexus of climate change & poverty. Our focus areas have been driven by extensive research.

  • We understand food systems including land and oceans as a major focus area to
    address. This nested challenge includes biodiversity loss, poverty and climate change.

    We are launching our nature to nurture initiative in 2025,
    focusing on the link between biodiversity, food systems and human health.

  • We understand biodiversity protection and regeneration
    as key to our future in this planet.

    We are currently building investment portfolios and
    a community of practice for nature based financing.

  • We know women and girls have a crucial role to transition
    to a more sustainable, just and resilient future.

    We drive research & integrate a gender lens approach
    across all our portfolios and initiatives.

  • We know that shifting our cultural paradigms and assumptions
    hold the deepest leverage points and opportunity for change.

    We invest in initiatives and companies that are actively shifting
    our long held assumptions of economic growth, shareholder primacy,
    overconsumption & our winner- takes-all mindsets towards understanding
    our world – its ecosystems and communities, as deeply interconnected
    and interdependent within our planetary boundaries.
