Net Zero
Policy Network
Climate commitments by 12,000+ companies, investors, cities, and regions prove readiness for coordinated climate policy and action.
Current policy has so far failed to establish the clear, fair, and aligned ground rules for a net-zero economy, which we urgently need. A fundamental issue that prevents progress is the gap between:
-
- what we know about effective and required net-zero policies from research,
- the currently existing policies, and
- the reality businesses face in their net-zero transition.
By uniting the expertise of businesses, policymakers, NGOs, and researchers, the Net-Zero Policy Network aims to bridge this gap, streamline the development of supportive policies, and establish an actionable blueprint for business participation in net-zero policies that inspires and enables bold climate action across industries.
Join the Network for:
-
Expert-led webinars & peer-to-peer learning -
Updates on the latest net-zero policy and regulation -
Access to key resources to empower effective climate policy action and advocacy -
Opportunities for confidential, outcome-focused conversations and intimate round tables. -
Collaboration on key research to fill knowledge gaps in net-zero policy
About Us
The Net Zero Policy Network is an initiative co-founded by Kaya Axelsson and Dr Alexander Schmidt. It is hosted by Oxford Net Zero, with support from the Exponential Roadmap Initiative and Race to Zero. With thanks to Normative.
Our aim is to bridge the gap from research and policy to business reality through four core workstreams:
- Inform: The Network provides a platform to share the latest insights from research and policy leaders on what clear, fair, and aligned ground rules for a net-zero economy look like, and how these can be established.
- Convene: The Network provides a space for confidential, outcome-focused conversations between policymakers and business leaders to identify and overcome key bottlenecks on their net-zero transitions.
- Amplify: The Network collaborates with businesses, policymakers, and researchers to publish case studies and research insights, working towards a roadmap to close the gap between theory and practice.
- Accelerate: The Network helps businesses to accelerate their own net-zero transition by identifying effective policy advocacy opportunities via peer-to-peer exchange.
