## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** **From 01/04/2021 to 31/03/2022** **Charity name:** Trace Planet **Charity registration number:** 1185153 **The Board of Trustees:** Antonia Halko Aroa Fernandez Alvarez Markus Sollner ## **Objectives and Activities** Trace Planet works to promote environmental regeneration as a key solution to slow down climate change, engaging communities and organizations to transition from an extractive to a regenerative mindset, and to trigger behavioural change that leads to measurable impact. The object for which Trace Planet is established, as set out in its Constitution, is the advancement of education in climate change, environmental protection and sustainable consumption anywhere in the world for the general public by online communications and face-to-face workshops and other educational gatherings. The Trustees confirm that they have had regard to the guidance issues by the Charity Commission on public benefit, and they confirm that Trace Planet is a public benefit entity. ## **Achievements and Performance** For the period of the financial year going from 01/04/2021 to 31/03/2022, the work of Trace Planet focused on educational work in two strategic axes. First, we worked to create and develop a lot of very high-quality educational content with the set goal of reaching over 1,000 people with our message on the importance of regeneration. This strategic area was all about reach. Second, we worked with a select number of climate activists to help them become more system changing in their strategies and to advance their knowledge of regenerative practices. This was all about depth. ## **- 1) Reaching over 1,000 people with regular, high quality educational content on regenerative practices and changemaking habits** A focus of our year was to develop a strong and engaged audience on social media, particularly on Instagram, by creating high-quality educational content on regenerative practices, and providing tips and encouragement for people to get involved in daily activism. To that end, the team created nearly 300 posts during the year, matched with daily activation of our audience through polls, questions, and other activities. Our following grew from 0 at the beginning of April 2021 (date when the accounts were created) to 1,100 in March 2022. Our social media content is evidence-based and science-backed. It’s focused on environmental regeneration and regenerative agriculture, but it also covers more widespanning topics such as other strategies for climate change mitigation, animal welfare, pollution, sustainable habit-building, and strategies for nature stewardship. ## **2) Working with a small group of climate activists to foster connection and advance their knowledge about systemic change and regeneration** One of our goals for the year was to take a deeper, more systemic approach to our impact. That’s why we worked to identify a group of young climate activities who had been instrumental in the activation around Fridays for the Future and who are leading the change for a more climate-responsible society, with the goal of working with them in honing and scaling their impact. We worked for 3 months to find the right group of people for this programme, and in August 2021 put together an event that had the following goals: 1. Build connection and valuable support networks. 2. Stimulate peer-to-peer learning. 3. Increase knowledge about systems change. The impact of the “Regenerative Networks” event, in data: - 86 Net Promoter Score (considered “Excellent” as per NPS guidelines). - 100% of participants reported building meaningful connection with fellow activists. - 86% of participants reported feeling like they had a stronger support network after the event. - 100% of participants reported coming up with new collaborative solutions to scale their impact. - 100% of participants reported learning about how to make their work more systemic. - 100% of participants reported getting support and inspiration for the challenges they were facing in their work. The impact of the “Regenerative Networks” event, as told by the attendees: - “I took away connection with other activists, thinking about exciting ideas together and breaking down systems in a useful way.” - “It was really helpful to meet new people and to connect and network with everyone. It was also helpful to learn more about the systemic nature of everything and how it all works together.” - “Loved it! So many resources to take away and we got solutions to our issues. Very happy.” - “I took away that there are so many ways to take action and all actions are equally meaningful within a space.” - “The framework for thinking about systems change was so valuable.” - “I take SO MUCH! I take so much inspiration from everyone there today, it empowers you so much being with all different climate activists!” ## **Financial Review** Trace Planet’s total income for the period of this annual report is £2,650.
