Involved in

B Corp

Between 2019 and 2023, B Corp Benelux and The Shift joined forces to strengthen the B Corp movement in Belgium. Together, they built a growing community of companies that put sustainability and social responsibility at the heart of their strategy.

Sign for my future

Sign for my Future, launched in 2019, grew into one of the largest climate campaigns in Belgium. The initiative brought together citizens, businesses, civil society and academics to call on policymakers for ambitious and binding climate policies. With more than 340,000 signatures, The Shift as a unifying force ensured broad public support.

Supply Chain Leaders Group

The Supply Chain Leader Group brought together leading companies from the
Belgian Alliance for Climate Action
to leverage the impact of their supply chain in the fight against global warming. The program consisted of a series of roundtable sessions sharing key challenges and best practices and shaping science-based reduction strategies.

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.

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 process. In this community of practice, you will exchange ideas with fellow professionals to provide clear strategies to mobilise suppliers and reduce emissions on a large scale.

The System Shift

Many organisations are seeking guidance to better align their mission, structure and governance with societal and environmental challenges. In this community of practice, fellow entrepreneurs and experts work together on economist Kate Raworth’s Donut Design for Business model to build future-proof business models that respect people and nature.
