Nobel Sustainability Trust (NST) is an independent non-profit foundation founded by members of the Nobel family to support the advancement of sustainability solutions that are ready to move from insight to implementation.

​​​​

Climate change, environmental degradation, and resource depletion are no longer abstract challenges. They are systemic risks with direct consequences for economic stability, social resilience, and long-term prosperity. Addressing them requires more than ambition or vision alone. It requires scientifically validated solutions, practical implementation capacity, and coordinated action across sectors.

​​

NST exists to give a voice to the solutions capable of closing that gap.

​​

NST operates as an independent platform for identifying, signalling, and connecting sustainability solutions with the institutions and decision-makers capable of enabling their implementation.

​​

Our mission - NST advances sustainable economic growth that strengthens the planet’s life-support systems while enabling long-term human prosperity. We identify, recognize, and elevate solutions that combine scientific credibility with real-world viability — solutions capable of being implemented, scaled, and sustained.

​​

Our focus - NST concentrates its efforts where progress is both urgent and achievable. We prioritize solutions that deliver measurable impact through:

​​

• Climate action enabled by scalable, non-polluting, and renewable technologies that reduce emissions while supporting economic resilience.

• The transition to sustainable societies by supporting initiatives that strengthen governance, transparency, and long-term prosperity across sectors.

• The protection and restoration of life-sustaining ecosystems, ensuring development remains within the planet’s carrying capacity.
