We’re working

together

to create an

inclusive

climate movement.

We support European climate organisations to take meaningful, measurable action on equity and inclusion. Using data, we platform all voices.

The climate crisis doesn’t impact everyone equally.

Climate action shouldn’t either.

Marginalised communities are hit hardest by climate change but excluded from shaping solutions.

That's why we’re bringing European climate leaders together to drive just, inclusive change.

We empower people in organisations to speak up, lead, and make a difference.

Turning data into action, and action into progress.

Step one: Gathering data

We ask senior leaders and board members in the climate sector to share anonymous, GDPR-compliant demographic data.

Step two: Spot the gaps

We identify where inequality exists - in leadership, systems, and decision-making.

Step three: Centre lived experience

We amplify underrepresented voices and place lived experience at the heart of the process.

Step four: Drive change

We support organisations to turn insight into impact through better policy, fairer recruitment, and new ways of working.

“This isn’t about box-ticking. It’s about setting a new standard, one that prioritises diversity and justice efforts in the climate movement.” - Daniel, Zedela

We're catalysing collective action through transparency.

PACE Index is a collaboration between SOS-UK and zedela. We're working alongside a growing network of climate organisations and individuals across Belgium, France, Germany and the Netherlands.

In 2025, we're calling on NGOs and funders working in the European climate space to commit to transparency and accountability for progressing social inclusion. The ultimate goal is to ensure climate organisations are centred around justice for all.

By signing up to PACE Index, senior leaders in organizations will take part in a survey to drive understanding of diversity and inclusion in the sector.

The 2025 survey for PACE Index will take place September - October.
