Systemiq  

Systemiq seeks to bring speed and scale to transforming five systems that shape how we live and work: energy, nature and food, materials, urban areas, and finance.

SYSTEMIQ is driving economic projects and policy initiatives that can not only reduce tropical deforestation, but also enhance natural systems, from savannahs or temperate agricultural soils to wetlands and marine biomes.

Through Partnership for Forests, they accelerate businesses that preserve and enhance ecosystems: they develop the business case for forest protection, then help to bring this to a commercial scale – for example, by securing third-party investment. Their work with global commodity value chains includes supporting palm oil companies and governments to deliver on deforestation-free palm production in Indonesia and across Africa. They also incubate community-based forest enterprises to preserve tropical forest in Asia, West Africa and Latin America. Producing premium foods – from foraged honey to coffee – can help local people raise standards of living, while securing their land rights and creating frontier zones that protect the forest beyond.
