To remain effective in a fast-evolving landscape of emerging legislation and stronger calls for sustainability action, sustainability systems need to push boundaries. In response to this urgent need for innovation, the ISEAL Innovations Fund supports sustainability systems to drive collective action on key sustainability challenges.
The Innovations Fund was co-founded with the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs SECO in 2016. It is ISEAL’s grant-making facility to support sustainability systems unlock new innovative partnerships, approaches and solutions that can operate at scale.
The Fund drives innovation by providing grantees with technical support, guidance, and promoting cross-sector learning within and beyond the ISEAL community. With this support, sustainability systems can collaborate on critical sustainability challenges, deliver value to their stakeholders, and meet the evolving needs of governments, companies and smallholders along the value chain.
