About the Organization

Nudge connects people and organisations to realise bottom-up initiatives that bring positive and durable change to our society. Nudge is a social enterprise based in The Netherlands.

We support the transformation to a more sustainable society through leadership programmes, consulting and campaigning and by distributing our expertise to local communities. We work closely together with businesses, NGOs, scientific institutions and governments to firmly root sustainability in their business models, governance and leadership development. We use the power of business to solve social and environmental issues.

We believe that knowledge and expertise are worth more when shared and we facilitate this through our platform and the Nudge community (81,250 individuals and 200 business partners). By enabling bottom-up initiatives, we aim to provide actionable opportunities that are accessible to everyone. All of our activities are based on ecological, economical and social impact and can be both big and small. Nudge invites every individual to act and contribute to society in a positive way.
