Chapter Zero

Who we are

Chapter Zero Brussels is a Belgian non-profit organisation established in 2019 to inspire and support board directors and business leaders across Belgium to implement effective climate and nature governance. It is part of the Chapter Zero Alliance, a global network of 34 Chapters spanning more than 70 countries and reaching more than 100,000 board directors worldwide.  In January 2026 Chapter Zero Brussels announced a partnership with The Shift in Belgium, sharing a common ambition to embed sustainability firmly in decision-making. 

What we do

From the most critical boardroom challenge to a significant strategic opportunity, climate and nature are no longer peripheral compliance concerns, but strategic levers for growth.  Chapter Zero Brussels equips board directors and business leaders with the network, knowledge, tools and confidence to have strategic boardroom discussions on the risks and opportunities of climate and nature for their companies.       

In partnership with the World Economic Forum, Chapter Zero Alliance’s work is anchored in the Guiding Principles for Climate & Nature Governance, a practical framework helping boards manage risk with confidence, integrate climate and nature into governance strategy, and identify opportunities for long-term value creation. With the support of this Alliance, Chapter Zero Brussels enables directors and business leaders to implement climate strategies that strengthen long-term organisational resilience and competitive advantage, and to advance a climate-resilient, nature-positive economy.

Our activities are focused on:

• Empowering:  We provide first-class knowledge programs, fact-based content, practical tools and best practices to empower directors to act.
• Connecting: We provide a network for directors to connect and exchange best practice among peers, with key experts and stakeholders.  We ensure dialogue with leading EU officials on pertinent climate policy topics.
