Why? If It's not about people and planet, then what is the point?
Ethos helps individuals and organisations uncover why and how they will deliver real social value for the benefit of people and planet.
Our Mission
At Ethos, we’re dedicated to surfacing the stories that exist in all of us, demonstrating how we can create social and environmental value. As social value practitioners specializing in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) innovation, our mission is to create a more sustainable and equitable future by supporting individuals and organizations in delivering better social value. We believe that true change comes from understanding and amplifying the unique stories of those on the front lines. That’s you!
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” – Margaret Mead
The future needs radical. Are you ready to work with us?
How we deliver Social Value
Our approach to creating social value involves two key strategies. First, we partner with individuals who are committed to making a positive impact on society and the environment. We refer to these individuals as “Value Exchangers” and work closely with them to support their social impact journey.
Secondly, we collaborate with organisations to help them identify and deliver on their social value commitments. By working with these organisations, we can help them to develop comprehensive strategies for creating social impact and provide the necessary tools and resources to achieve their goals.
Whether you’re an individual looking to make a difference, or an organisation seeking to improve your social value performance, we’re here to help.
