About

With less than 10 years to deliver on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, there is a renewed priority to balance human aspirations with the planet’s ability to sustain them. And a new mandate for businesses and other institutions to take the lead.

      To navigate this decade of transformation, one thing is certain: We will need to create new models for partnership and collaboration and leverage our collective strengths to unlock opportunities to propel progress and create the sustainable future we all believe is possible.

      That’s why Economist Impact is launching The Sustainability Project, a new model combining insights, innovation and influence to convene and actively engage global stakeholders with the power to effect real change.

      The Sustainability Project will contextualise the important issues and solutions-based thinking that will set the agenda for global transformation through a mix of:

      • Original, weekly content that spotlights the latest news, Economist Impact research and insights and shares the perspectives of international experts, academics and sustainability pioneers 

      • Cutting-edge research and tools, including reports, charts, infographics, raw data, workbooks, and more—all designed to turn insights into action

      • Robust community features that enable you to enjoy a tailored experience and extend your network of trusted contacts and find those with the know-how to assist with your specific projects and needs.

      The Sustainability Project will focus on the biggest sustainability issues facing our world—and your business:

      • Net Zero and Energy: Realising ambitious pledges and goals

      • Resilience and Adaptation: Preparing for environmental and social change

      • Circular Economies: Creating sustainable economic systems

      • Ecosystems and Resources: Building regenerative systems

      • Social Sustainability: Strengthening societal trust, inclusiveness and cooperation

      The Sustainability Project is the first major initiative of Economist Impact, which combines the capabilities and expertise we are known for—policy research and insights, data visualisation, custom storytelling, events and media—under a single business.

      Together, we catalyse change in the world and enable progress.
