ChangeMakers Network C.I.C. (ChangeMakers) is a community interest company creating a “forum for sustainable prosperity”, to communicate sustainability in plain, clear, language so communities understand them and collaborate to benefit their daily lives. Our vision is for the principles of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to be embedded in every part of local communities, making them more ecologically and economically resilient.

Partnering with businesses, community groups, local government, and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to make the Bath & NE Somerset (BathNES) a “centre of excellence” of public awareness and collaborative action to meet the environmental and social challenges. The model would then be “franchised” as an open-source package to other cities with BathNES as an example of what is possible.

ChangeMakers is creating a template for how local government and cities can rapidly, and effectively, transform communities to become economically stronger and more resilient to climate and ecological shocks.
