GRID-Arendal: Annual Report 2012

Who We Are GRID-Arendal is a non-profit environmental foundation set up by the Norwegian Ministry of Environment in 1989 as part of Norway’s support to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the United Nations (UN) environment agenda.

The foundation’s programme of work is focused on the changing global environment and the challenges these changes present to people everywhere. We envision a society that understand and values the environment on which it depends. By combining the best science and research with innovative commu-

nications methods, we produce easily accessible in- formation for decision-making, individual action and positive change.

Our team is made up of 35 permanent staff members, several interns, as well as a network of consultants.
