Collaborations
Shift works with a wide range of organizations in carrying out its mission as an independent, nonprofit center on business and human rights practice. This includes partner institutions that are sponsoring or implementing projects with us; governments that are working with us under our Government Engagement Program; and business participants that are actively involved in our Business Learning Program or in specific projects under our other programs.
Shift receives financial support from many of the partners it works with under the International Partnerships and Education and Outreach Programs as well as from participants in the Business Learning Program. Government Engagements may be supported by the governments directly involved, or through grants from other government donors. Shift also welcomes untied funding from donors for its core operations.
Here you can see who we are currently working with and link straight to specific projects that we are involved in with partner institutions. A list of our prior collaborations can be found at the bottom of the page.
