We are a strategic communication group that works with sustainability.
Who we areIn an increasingly complex world, we create clear communication and powerful strategies for the future. By combining strategy, communication and design with knowledge of global sustainability practices, we raise awareness and create engagement around important issues at all levels of society.
What we doWe translate the language of governments, companies and organizations into messages that everyone can understand and act on.
How we workThere is only one future and it is sustainable. That is not an opinion, it is a scientific fact. We are committed to help everyone contribute to this sustainable future. Everyone has important roles to play, but only by working together can we create good forces for a prosperous, equal and tolerant world.
Who we work with
Many of us dream of a white, cold Christmas. But for it to keep coming true, we must stop global warming. We all need to reduce our emissions and simultaneously compensate for the emissions we can’t get rid of. We created a Christmas campaign together with Klimatkompensera to keep the dream alive.
Support the campaign and start compensating here
Health is a human right. Despite this, not all people living in Stockholm are entitled to medical care. Doctors of the World (Läkare i världen) is a non-profit human rights organization providing vulnerable people with medical care when society fails them. Everyone working in their clinic does so voluntarily. We helped creating their new campaign, aiming to raise money for them to be able to continue their invaluable work.

Today, on September 24th, world leaders are gathering in New York for the SDG Summit to accelerate progress with the Global Goals. On the same day, we - together with Concord Sweden - launch the icon for Leave No One Behind, the most important commitment in the Global Goals.
In the Goals we promised to build a better future not just for most, but for all. Only when no one is left behind have we truly reached the Goals.
