Our Programs

We are dedicated to addressing the urgent issues of environmental and social issues caused by corporations. Working hand-in-hand with communities on the ground, our aim is to strike at the root of the problem by demanding financial accountability from the financial sector that funds these practices. By addressing immediate environmental and social concerns, our goal is to encourage an ethos of sustainable finance and to lay a foundation for equitable, long-term behavioral change. Our programs focus on advocating for responsible land use, protecting the rights of local communities, and fostering sustainable practices that resonate beyond borders.

Indonesia's Palm Oil Tycoons

Rigorous research and deep investigations reveal the powerful grip of Indonesia's palm oil industry giants. This publication sheds light on how these influential players contribute to deepening economic disparities, exerting an outsized influence on both land and resources. By exposing the unseen impacts of their dominance, we aim to inspire a more equitable conversation about land rights, sustainable practices, and accountability in one of the world’s most crucial agricultural sectors. This publication is a critical resource for understanding the forces shaping Indonesia's environmental and economic landscape.

Forests and Finance

As part of a coalition, we work alongside other organizations through collaborative efforts and effective utilization of data and technology to highlight the crucial intersections between finance and deforestation in tropical forests. Our shared mission is to hold financial institutions accountable for their roles in environmental degradation and to champion ethical investment practices. Together, we push for a future where financial decisions reflect a commitment to preserving our planet’s most critical ecosystems.

Fires and Finance

Our resource site connects the dots between financial investments and the widespread fires that devastate Indonesia’s forests each year. This sub-site unveils the financial networks supporting companies linked to deforestation and land degradation. By exposing these connections, we aim to drive accountability and reshape financial practices toward responsible investments. For anyone seeking to understand the financial underpinnings of environmental harm—and to see pathways toward change—this is an essential resource.
