Amazing work from Arc’s team, partners, Applied Works and our great funders! If you’re attending the Climate Action | Innovation Forum, stop by our demo stand to try out our one-stop tool to assess corporate climate transitions and unlock finance. 📍 The Guildhall, Gresham Street, London, EC2V 7HH 📅 27 June 🕒 8:00 - 19:30 BST #TransitionArc #ClimateAction
It’s #TransitionArc launch day! We’re excited to introduce TransitionArc: a one-stop tool to assess corporate transitions, and unlock finance at the speed and scale needed to meet global climate goals. For the first time in the public domain, the best available corporate transition analysis has been brought together in one place. This is a game changer for #ClimateFinance, as decision makers no longer need to contend with varying assessment frameworks, multiple ratings and conflicting metrics. Now anyone can see what ‘good’ looks like on the path to transition, and assess companies across five key metrics: ➡️ GHG emissions ➡️ Climate targets ➡️ Capital allocation ➡️ Governance ➡️ Policy engagement TransitionArc will accelerate the #ClimateTransition by empowering decision makers to close the gaps between corporate commitments, disclosure and action: 🔷 Companies can prioritize green solutions and attract investment 🔷 Financial institutions can direct flows of capital to support corporate transitions 🔷 Civil society can advocate for greater and more specific corporate accountability 🔷 Governments and regulators can develop policy and accountability mechanisms Everything we do at Climate Arc is based on collaboration. TransitionArc was created in partnership with world-leading data and analysis providers including Carbon Tracker, Corporate Knights, InfluenceMap, Transition Pathway Initiative (TPI) , World Benchmarking Alliance, CDP, Global Canopy, Science Based Targets initiative and The International Council on Clean Transportation. The metrics are consistent with existing climate transition frameworks, including the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) and Transition Plan Taskforce (TPT).

Following a brand refresh and the launch of its corporate climate data tool #TransitionArc, we’re excited to announce the next step in our partnership with Climate Arc: the design and build of its new website 🌍✨ Climate Arc applies innovative approaches and deep expertise to challenges in climate finance: https://climatearc.org #ClimateAction #ClimateFinance #ESGs #SustainableFinance
Alongside #TransitionArc, our new website recently went live! 🎉 Over the last two years, our vision and work at Arc have greatly evolved. At its heart, Arc is built on collaboration. With our partners, we’re creating tools, gathering insights and hosting conversations that are adding real value to the #ClimateFinance ecosystem, and driving us toward collective #Climate goals. There’s much more to be done, but we have come a long way. We needed a website and brand to reflect that. Designed by Applied Works, we’ve launched a new brand that expresses our dynamic, creative and innovative approach to the climate finance challenge – focused on making novel connections, and effectively engaging decision makers with clarity and impact. And as we grow, we have more and more tangible work to accompany our vision. Our new website is a clearer, more detailed showcase of that work, and the collaborations that make it possible, across our strategic pillars: Pathways, Analysis and Capacity. You can now find out more about our: 💸 Grants: We fund analysis, datasets, training, and other toolkits that support climate finance decision making. 💡 Insights: We create maps that show the current climate finance landscape, to deepen our understanding of barriers, scope and solutions. 📈 Tools: We build tools that improve access to the best climate data and analysis, to drive climate-aligned decision making in the wider economy. 👥 Team: From finance professionals to data experts, we’re a diverse team committed to our common goal. Huge thanks to the Applied Works team for their design and development work, on this and on #TransitionArc. 🔗 Visit the website here: https://climatearc.org/

We’re proud to be working on the design and development of #TransitionArc – a one-stop data tool to assess corporate transitions on climate (https://lnkd.in/eX4R8RfT). For the first time in the public domain, the best available corporate climate analysis has been brought together in one place – a unique collaboration between world-leading corporate climate data and analysis providers. Companies can be compared within and across sectors, showing what ‘good’ looks like on the path to transition. They are also graded A to E on alignment with a 1.5°C pathway, with guidance on what needs to be done to improve their score. We’re partnering with Climate Arc on this ambitious programme of work, supporting the team to map user needs, explore data narratives, and deliver a leading user experience for TransitionArc. With data from a range of different sources and various levels of complexity, we’re delighted to be creating a bold and distinct focus for a platform that will be used by many audiences, including financial institutions, companies, policy makers, and NGOs.

It's #LondonDataWeek, and today we're hosting a one-off workshop on 'Applying user experience design to data tools' at Somerset House. Marco Bernardi 📸 👇 and Grace Treacher will guide participants through an interactive session, exploring the needs, motivations, and pain points of people working with and accessing data – participants will then discover how to test these insights with real users.

Last year the excellent people Applied Works launched #AWSpringboard, a chance for your organisation to have its data or research benefit from the AW's considerable sprinkling of design stardust, at no cost. You can be based anywhere in the world. Last year's winners were Open Cities Lab, a South African non-profit and non-partisan organisation that "combines the use of action research, co-design, data science, and technology with civic engagement to enable the development of inclusive cities and urban spaces". (More here: https://lnkd.in/e5HCkA4c) #AWSpringboard has now been launched again for its second year and there's plenty of time for you to apply and secure this exceptional opportunity. More details in the post below...
#AWSpringboard is back! Apply for free design, user, and impact expertise (worth £12k) to help bring your important data or research project to the attention of the people who need to see it most.

Ghost Rivers is a 1.5-mile public art installation and walking tour that visualises a lost stream buried below the streets of Baltimore. Through a series of installations, wayfinding markers, and writings, it brings lost landscapes and histories to the surface. @Bruce Willen, along with an extensive list of collaborators, is the multidisciplinary artist, designer, and musician behind the project. Bruce is also the founder of Public Mechanics, a design and art studio that works on exciting projects in public and cultural spaces. We feature Ghost Rivers in this month's #RowsandColumns.
