OUR OFFERING

At the “Institute for a Sustainable Planet”, we believe that thriving ecosystems can be a reality. Our goal is to inspire our clients to invest in the well-being of our planet through the adoption of innovative solutions that increase the quality of economic, social and environmental life on earth. 

We deliver innovative strategies for a green and social economy so that the environment is preserved for generations to come. In order to achieve this, we train youth to become responsible stewards for our planet, we generate a conscious consumerism and we contribute to create responsible corporate leaders.

Our tools are: original research, educational campaigns, international business expansion, sustainable events, mindful games and conscious media products.


SOME OF OUR PROJECTS

“SUSTAINABILITY WEEK”

A weeklong event that motivates an international community to take a part in the development of a sustainable planet. The activities function as a catalyst towards the establishment of a dialogue beyond the traditional climate change debate. “Sustainability Week” generates a conscious consumerism and a more nurturing economic relationship with our planet.

The “Sustainable Planet Film Festival” was launched in 2005 when Pamela Peeters was asked to join the marketing team of the US Partnerships for the UNESCO Decade for Sustainable Education. For more than ten years already, the festival showcases how sustainable development is translated by international communities and what the impacts are of a society out of tune with the well-being of the planet. 


THE “SUSTAINABLE STEWARD” GALA

Since then, more than forty interviews have been generated during: the “Power of One” conference in Washington, the “Risk and Value creation Forum” at Nasa in San Francisco, and many experts for the Eco Hero Lab web series.
During four different expeditions in the Canadian High Arctic (2015, 2017 and two in 2023) films clips were produced for the purposes of the “Narwhal Revealing an Arctic Legend” exhibition from the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History and a new hybrid educational curriculum for Youth as a gift from the US Embassy in Ottawa to the Canadian people.
The “Institute for a Sustainable Planet” has also started the production of a documentary in Colombia with Indigenous people from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. (2022 – 2024)
