Ashden's mission is to accelerate transformative climate solutions and build a more just world. Our awards, events, networks and analysis support climate innovation in the UK and developing countries around the world.
In 2023:
Using Applied for all recruitment.
Overhauling our Awards application process to make it simpler for applicants.
Platforming marginalised voices in our communications.
We set up the Green Communities Learning Network and have run two webinars which have been deeply engaging and well-attended. Our first event focussed on how climate action community groups could better engage diverse audiences, giving us the opportunity to platform some of the underrepresented climate voices we came across during the Award research and allowing for their methods and best practice to be adopted further afield.
In 2024:
Engaging DEI consultants to work across the organisation and provide an action plan that we can implement.
