What we do?
We work to inspire and accelerate a mainstream transition to sustainable and resilient infrastructure through feasible designs and financing mechanisms. Our projects are designed on the principles of nature-based solutions while our financing mechanisms center upon credible sustainability standards for infrastructure project evaluation called Sure® Standards.
Why do we do it?
We consider sustainable and resilient infrastructure an essential building block to reach the un sdgs. it has the power to shape how we meet today’s challenges of rising inequalities, urban sprawl, population growth, environmental degradation and biodiversity loss – all exacerbated by the impacts of climate change.
