Sustainable Business Unit
Within the WWF global network, WWF-UK has played a leading role in pioneering the development of social change initiatives that puts learning at the heart of change for sustainability. They work with three key communities; education, sustainable communities and business. The Sustainable Business Unit (SBU) champions this approach within the business community by building learning networks (One Planet Business) and learning partnerships.
This is the key question that the SBU seeks to answer.
The Sustainable Business Unit does this through targeting change at an industry, company and issue level:
1. One Planet Business – towards more sustainable industry sectors. Together with partners from business, government, consumers and other groups, we seek to understand why industry sectors are unsustainable, collectively shape a vision for sustainability in those sectors and agree the shared actions needed to reduce their impact on society and the environment.

2. Innovation Partnerships – towards more sustainable businesses. We work directly with companies to explore the potential for new business practices and models that improve their sustainability. More >>
3. Addressing Global Threats – towards reducing environmental threats. With significant industry experience, the SBU team works closely with WWF’s environmental experts to ensure our work with business makes a real contribution to reducing the major threats, such as climate change, facing the planet.
