our impact.
As a values-driven organisation, we pursue volunteering opportunities, client work and partnerships that allow us to priortise impact-oriented work across our practice areas. Our team is committed to ensuring we play our part in solving critical social and environmental challenges, beyond helping our clients do the same.
At Shared Planet, we donate 20% of our
time to pro-bono clients and partnerships.
Giving back and working alongside incredible, mission-oriented
organisations that are dedicated to solving the world's most pressing
social and environmental challenges is critical to our mission.
Client work and partnerships
Shared Planet is working with Pennsylvania State University and Oregon State University establish an East Africa research centre of excellence that will be a hub for governments and park agencies and managers working on human-wildlife conflict in East Africa and to connect academic experts with those on the frontlines of human wildlife conflict.
Alongside Sea Shepherd Global, Shared Planet co-leads an international campaign to stop the Grindadrap hunt of dolphins and whales in the Faroe Islands. Our work, which began as a pro-bono partnership, includes a multi-faceted advocacy campaign for #StoptheGrind, a global coalition serving as a platform for all like-minded organisations and individuals concerned about the Grind to work together to pressure the Faroese government towards a ban
Shared Planet partners with City Harvest to support the organisation’s thought leadership and efforts to raise awareness on important issues that City Harvests and its partners bear witness to every day. We develop tri-annual thought leadership reports that amplify how food redistribution and City Harvest fulfils its mission of saving food, people and the planet. Beyond donating our time to City Harvest, Shared Planet also volunteers at their warehouse, helping to sort and organise food to be distributed to City Harvest's charity partners and those that they serve.
Shared Planet supports World Wide Fund for Nature UK in the drafting and advocacy for a Global Roadmap for a Nature-Positive Economy. The aim of the roadmap is to develop a shared agenda for action for identifying the necessary global-level reforms to build a nature-positive economy — an economy that no longer over-exploits and degrades nature, but instead results in increasing levels of nature and natural capital.
Shared Planet offers website and digital management support to Recipes from the Heart, an initiative aimed at raising resources for children in conflict and war and promote reconciliation. The initiative will shortly be launched and is raising money to support the International Network for Aid, Relief and Assistance.
At Shared Planet, we believe in the profound impact that strategic collective collaboration can have on solving today’s pressing environmental and social challenges. Our dedication to this mission is both professional and deeply personal, motivating us to pursue actionable and long-lasting solutions for our planet and communities. We aim to contribute to a global movement that is not afraid to push boundaries, in which we envision a future where sustainability, justice, and equity prevail.

Volunteering
We strive to partner with organisations making both a local and global difference for our all-team volunteer days. In the past, we have worked with non-profit groups and advocacy organisations like City Harvest to give back to the community.
Shared Planet are a great consultancy who went above and beyond to ensure the success of our project on the Nature Positive Economy Roadmap. They helped us develop the Roadmap by engaging a wide range of stakeholders and by navigating through a nascent thematic space. They also supported the development of an advocacy strategy for the promotion of the Roadmap. They are dependable and effective. They displayed creativity and adaptability whenever we met obstacles during the project and helped us meet our objectives. Our collaboration felt more like a partnership than a consultancy. They committed significant resources into our project and delivered far more than was originally expected of them."
