Co-founded by SustainCERT and Gold Standard, the Value Change Initiative (VCI) is a global peer-to-peer forum helping companies and stakeholders accelerate credible Scope 3 emission reductions and removals.
Connect with 500+ experts and peers to tackle the complexity of Scope 3 emissions together.
Co-create and test real-world solutions that companies can use now, even with imperfect data.
Align with global standards and frameworks, ensuring progress is recognized and trusted.
The Value Change Initiative (VCI) is a multi-stakeholder forum designed to make net-zero value chains possible by 2050. It brings together companies, civil society, and leading climate frameworks to co-create and share best practice for accounting and reporting value chain (Scope 3) emission reductions and removals.
Through working groups, labs, and collaborative pilots, VCI helps members overcome barriers, test practical solutions, and develop consensus guidance that is widely referenced across industries.
VCI’s work is organized into collaborative spaces where members test solutions and co-develop guidance:
These initiatives ensure that companies not only measure Scope 3 emissions, but also reduce them in ways that are scalable, verifiable, and aligned with global standards.
Scope 3 emissions typically represent 75%–90% of a company’s footprint. Yet, they are the hardest to act on. The Value Change Initiative offers a trusted space to:
Become part of a peer-to-peer community accelerating credible Scope 3 action.
