Who is part of the commitment?

The Commitment brings together organizations from business, academia, and local government across the Gothenburg region to share best practices and inspire collective progress. In its initial phase, four private companies, four municipal administrations, and six municipal companies within the City of Gothenburg have signed the declaration of intent.

The signatories share a common trait: they have a significant influence on biodiversity and strong capacity to take meaningful action within their respective sectors. By joining the Commitment, they also aim to create the conditions and inspiration for more organizations to prioritize and implement measures that support biodiversity and ecosystem services. The initiative is now welcoming additional partners to join and sign the declaration of intent.

Participating companies have committed to a range of actions designed to enhance biodiversity.

Academia contributes to the collaboration by coordinating the Commitment and providing a scientific advisory board to review and strengthen the work. Coordination is managed through the SamBio project, funded by the Region Västra Götaland and run by the Gothenburg Global Biodiversity Centre (GGBC), hosted by the University of Gothenburg.
Business Region Göteborg (BRG) also supports the initiative by sharing its experience from similar partnership models in other fields.
