About us
Welcome to the website of the Latvian Sustainability Cluster! We are a non-governmental organization that supports businesses and society by promoting sustainable development as a competitive advantage. We provide practical solutions and advice, helping to adapt to market and policy changes.
Our goal
Our mission is to promote Latvia's successful transition to a sustainable future by providing the government, society and companies with comprehensive information and guidance on the opportunities, risks and consequences of their decisions, policies and processes. Our goal is to give decision-makers and stakeholders the knowledge and tools they need to align their actions with the European Union's climate goals and build a sustainable, low-carbon economy.
Our vision
Our vision is to help build a sustainable and globally competitive business that is deeply integrated into the global economy while contributing to the 'green economy' and climate goals. We believe that by prioritizing sustainability and environmental responsibility, we can help create business models that not only benefit the companies themselves, but also contribute to the health and well-being of our planet. We are committed to innovation and collaboration to drive positive change, and we strive to be leaders in sustainable business practices.
