Better decisions demand stronger connections
Today, decision-makers working on climate, nature, and development face a critical problem: the tools they need to act are fragmented, underpowered, and often built in isolation. Models don’t talk to each other. Data are hard to find, harder to trust, and rarely fit for real-world decision-making. Despite overwhelming urgency, digital infrastructure for the transition is lagging behind the modern web and the age of AI.
Did You Know?
There are over 100 climate data platforms , yet they don’t connect, and together, they only scratch the surface of the insights decision makers need to act on climate.

Transition Digital is a collective response
We’re a group of tech nonprofits working together to connect reliable data, models, tools, with the people who make positive change. Our goal is not to create one tool to rule them all, but to foster an open, interoperable ecosystem that helps decision-makers move faster, with greater clarity and confidence, powered by insights at their fingertips.
What Makes Transition Digital Different
Shared Infrastructure, Not Silos
We’re building foundational layers—standards, interfaces, and APIs—that allow digital tools and models to work together across domains, sectors, and organizations.
Purpose-Built for Decision-Makers
Transition Digital is designed for people who need to make complex decisions, from policymakers and planners to investors and implementers. Our approach prioritizes usability, reliability, and transparency.
Co-Created by the Field
We’re not working in a vacuum. The Transition Digital team are seasoned veterans of the tech, climate, nature, and development fields. We’ve built and led successful products, organizations, and strategies, we are deeply embedded in the communities we serve, and we prioritize engagement through testing sessions, and radical openness as we build.
Why Now
The window for meaningful action is narrowing. The digital tools we build now will shape the decisions made in the next five years — and define the next fifty. Transition Digital is working to ensure those tools are fit for purpose, grounded in science, and guided by the people leading the transition to a more sustainable, resilient future.
