SocEnv sets out Strategy to 2045
The strategy builds on SocEnv’s work over more than 20 years to promote multidisciplinary environmental professionalism and provide a collective voice for those working to protect and improve the environment.
It identifies three strategic pillars: Recognition, Influence and Growth. These focus on increasing recognition of environmental professional registration, strengthening SocEnv’s influence with policymakers and regulators, and growing and diversifying the community of registered environmental professionals.
The strategy also responds to growing environmental risks and the importance of credible, evidence-based action. SocEnv states that its approach will support good science, better decision-making and action that delivers benefits for the economy and society as well as the environment.
Alongside the strategy, SocEnv has refreshed its vision, mission and values. Its vision is “A sustainable future, shaped by trusted environmental professionalism”, while its mission focuses on championing excellence in environmental professionalism and working in partnership to support those shaping a sustainable future.
The organisation’s values are Trust, Community and Professionalism, encompassing principles including integrity, collaboration, inclusion, innovation and leadership.
SocEnv plans to review progress annually, using five-year Business Plans to respond to changing circumstances and adjust its approach where necessary.
The strategy has been developed in partnership with SocEnv’s registrants, Member Bodies and employers.
