Make a difference for people, planet and progress

Climate change, deforestation and poverty are complex global challenges with no single solution or single actor to solve them. But together we can create lasting change at scale.

We bring companies, governments, NGOs, investors and communities together to deliver a smart mix of solutions – transforming markets and making real progress on the Sustainable Development Goals. And we invite you to come and play your part.

Be part of an ambitious, international team

Spread throughout South America, Europe, Asia and Africa, our team represents a multitude of locations, cultures, lifestyles and backgrounds. It’s our differences that make us effective. And our shared belief in IDH’s core values that binds us together.

A culture of courage, integrity and inclusivity

As a purpose-driven organisation, our three core values influence everything we do, and guide our decisions wherever we find ourselves.

We’re all about doing what’s right, not what’s easy, and giving people agency to do the same. Staying independent, credible and trustworthy. And making connections based on mutual respect – not only with companies, CSOs and governments, but also with each other.
