People & Planet Week is for everyone working to build a fairer, more caring and more sustainable future. It brings together practical solutions, citizen action, community leadership, public innovation, responsible enterprise and cross-sector partnership under one shared purpose: improving lives and protecting the planet.

Make social innovation clear, visible and relevant to everyday life.

Convene

Create space for government, communities and practitioners to listen to one another.



Co-Create

Give people practical ways to contribute ideas, knowledge and experience.



Help people and organisations find partners, resources and opportunities.



Celebrate

Put existing achievements centre stage and build pride in what already works.

Led by governments, the Week provides a national platform to convene the many actors contributing to inclusive and sustainable development. Building on international recognition of the social and solidarity economy, entrepreneurship for sustainable development and social innovation, People & Planet Week enables countries to showcase practical solutions, engage citizens, strengthen partnerships and advance national priorities for people and planet.

Different names.
Different traditions.
One shared direction.
