Work and Inclusion

Work and Inclusion (2022-2023) gathered companies, policymakers and civil society actors to build inclusive workplaces. In a series of interactive sessions, participants learned how diversity and inclusive leadership lead to stronger teams, greater innovation and new perspectives on talent and collaboration.

Biodiversity in Action

Biodiversity in Action, a collaboration between The Shift and WWF-Belgium, gathered organisations that recognize their impact on nature and biodiversity to work on this, right to the heart of their business strategy. In the Biodiversity Action Labs, members from various sectors worked on concrete strategies to strengthen, measure and sustainably embed biodiversity in their operations.

Belgian Alliance for Climate Action

The Belgian Alliance for Climate Action (BACA) was founded in 2020 by The Shift and WWF-Belgium to connect organisations with a shared ambition to accelerate the transition towards a climate-neutral society. The initiative focussed on taking concrete climate action through Science-Based Targets, peer learning, interactive workshops and inspiring events.

Build your Biodiversity Strategy

Biodiversity is disappearing, and you can feel it: higher risks, scarce resources, less resilience. More and more Belgian companies are turning the tide by investing in nature to avoid loss and create value. In this community of practice, you will work with fellow companies and biodiversity experts to put biodiversity on your corporate agenda – right at the heart of your activities – and build a strategy that drives real, structured progress.

Decarbonised Supply Chains

On average, supply chain emissions are more than 11 times higher than a company’s direct emissions. In other words, Scope 3 plays a key role in any decarbonisation journey. In this community of practice, you will exchange with peers and experts on tangible strategies to mobilise suppliers and reduce emissions on a large scale.
