About BeSustain

A fairer, more transparent view of progress.

BeSustain is an international awards platform established to make sustainability initiatives visible through evidence, measurable outcomes and transparent evaluation.

As a participant of the United Nations Global Compact and the UN Global Compact Network Netherlands, BeSustain is the first and only sustainability awards programme in its sector in the Netherlands to have formalised its commitment to the initiative’s Ten Principles.

About BeSustain

We recognise real progress in sustainability.

The BeSustain Sustainability Awards recognise sustainability initiatives not only by how they are communicated, but by the evidence that supports them, the change they create and the transparency with which they are shared.

Evidence. Measurable progress. Responsibility.

Application dates will be announced soon.

Our approach

Evidence-based assessment across key areas.

We evaluate each initiative through a structured and transparent process, focusing on what can be evidenced, the progress achieved and the broader impact created.

  1. Evidence

    Assessment is based on verifiable information and credible data.

  2. Progress

    We look at measurable results and the change achieved over time.

  3. Impact

    We consider the broader environmental and social impact of each initiative.

  4. Transparency

    We value clear, open and honest reporting on both achievements and challenges.

Digital sustainability

Making our digital impact visible.

Digital experiences have an environmental impact too. BeSustain measures the estimated carbon impact of its website and shares the result transparently — because responsible communication should also consider the footprint of the channels it uses.
