CURRENT FOCUS

New Personal Ecological Footprint Quiz!

More countries coming soon - if you are interested in helping us build out the quiz for your country, contact Susan Burns.

Welcome Global Footprint Network partners!

Welcome to the web portal for Global Footprint Network partners.

This Partner Network comprises over 80 organizations that share the vision of living within the means of one planet. Partners play a vital role in guiding the Ecological Footprint research agenda and contributing to the development of Footprint methodology and standards. They are the world’s leading Footprint experts, working with business, government and individuals to make the Footprint relevant and practical.

Footprint Forum is a Global Footprint Network partner-only, password-protected online intranet that aims to facilitate communications and synergies in the Partner Network and to support the important work of our standards committees.

Features for partners include:

Listserves for partner announcements, general and topical discussions, and NFA and Standards committee communications
Forums for Footprint technical Q&A, methodology and applications discussions
Online library for partners to share resources, links, reports, case studies, press releases, etc
