To accelerate transformative climate solutions and build a more just world.
Ashden is on a mission to combat climate change and promote environmental justice worldwide. With a focus on accelerating transformative climate solutions, the organisation recognises that the challenges posed by climate change require on-the-ground initiatives to drive systemic change.
One of the key problems it addresses is the need for innovative approaches to mitigate climate change and its effects, particularly in developing countries where vulnerable communities are disproportionately affected. Climate solutions not only help reduce carbon emissions but also bring about tangible benefits such as improved health, increased incomes, and more equitable societies.
Ashden identifies and supports outstanding organisations and initiatives through its awards, events, networks, and analysis. By recognising and amplifying the work of climate innovators, Ashden aims to catalyse system changes and inspire others to take action.
