The Shift vertaalde deze doelstellingen in concrete duurzaamheidthema’s. Alle leden van The Shift engageren zich om een ambitie voor hun organisatie te formuleren rond één of meerdere maatschappelijke uitdaging en de nodige stappen te ondernemen om deze ambitie te realiseren. CHANGE Alle leden van The Shift hebben de intentie om mee te werken aan de realisatie van de missie van de organisatie. Binnen een uniek multi-actornetwerk wil The Shift haar leden uitdagen om op een vernieuwende manier samen te werken aan innovatieve projecten die bijdragen aan duurzame ontwikkeling in België.
