Our team

Founded in 1998, Article 13 was one of the first business consultancies to work in Sustainable Development and Business Responsibility, even before the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR or CR) was coined. Our name comes from the 1992 Rio Conference on Sustainable Development and reflects our founding vision to help people understand why they need to change their behaviour to enable a more sustainable world.

Underpinned by this desire to enable innovation and self-motivated behaviour change our work includes monitoring and scrutinising performance, challenging and contributing to strategy development and breaking down complex issues into practical plans and communications.

Ultimately our goal is to help organisations and their stakeholders ‘break the cycle’ and ‘leapfrog’ to better, more effective ways of working, drive positive change and create new societal value.
