About True Price/ Impact Institute

Impact Institute’s team supports True Price and True Price Foundation. True Price is working towards making products more sustainable, by structurally decreasing the social and environmental damage in the value chain. We aim to do so by calculating, showing, and improving the true price of products. The objective of true pricing is not to make your products more expensive, but to make them more sustainable. You will work in a new, small and growing team.

Impact Institute is a social enterprise. Our mission at the Impact Institute is to empower organisations and individuals to realise the impact economy. We do this by creating a common language for impact through the publication of open source standards and by providing the tools, training, and services to implement those standards. We give organisations – multinationals, SMEs, NGOs, governments – the information needed for sustainable risk management, innovation and stakeholder management.
