Creating a positive impact through collaboration and expertise
First established in 1986, Bellona is an international, independent non-governmental organisation (NGO) combating climate change.
Our 30 years of experience on the ground has been marked with active collaborations with civil society, academia, governments, institutions, and industries.
We work to be the go-to climate NGO in our areas of expertise, by bringing systems-thinking and the best available science to the foreground of our work.
