About the Women Sustainability Forum
Founded by Dr Isabel B. Franco, the Women Sustainability Forum is a global platform for exceptional women in sustainability, science, policy and practice.
Our story
Women’s contribution to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals is significant, yet too often under recognised. The Women Sustainability Forum was created to change that, offering a platform where women can share their expertise, raise their voices and lead.
The Forum works as an experimental platform for women in sustainability. It brings forward sustainable solutions across sectors and regions, and carries out rigorous research to produce policy, corporate and academic reports on demand.
The Forum is a platform created and managed by IBF International Institute for Better Futures, a sustainability advisory firm and think tank.
Our vision
To push global boundaries so that women can unleash their full potential towards a more sustainable future for all.
Our mission
To provide a platform for exceptional women in sustainability, science, policy and practice to discuss topics of current interest, build international networks and establish collaborations.
