A clearer view of climate innovation, with evidence held to a clear standard.
Climate solutions rarely run short of ideas.
They run short of connections between the people, evidence and places that could put them to work.
Progress in one system reshapes the possibilities in another: cleaner power changes how we heat buildings and move goods, and land use touches food, water and nature at once.
OTHERWAYS maps those systems together, so it is easier to understand a challenge, find the approaches that address it and see what it takes to make them work.
It is built for people who act, and held to a clear standard of evidence from the first draft to publication.
Measured by what it connects.
OTHERWAYS is counted in systems, the links between them and the entries that show change in practice.

The standard we hold content to.
A platform about evidence has to be clear about its own. Every entry follows these rules.
Sources
Every factual claim
Tied to a source: its title, publisher, address and date, and the claims it supports.
01
Verification
Figures and outcomes
Appear only once defined and backed by sources, never estimated.
02
Connections
Links between systems
Described as well-established mechanisms in words, with no quantities unless sourced.
03
Limitations
Every solution
Lists where it falls short alongside what it addresses and how it works.
04
Updates
Every entry
Revised as the evidence changes, and reviewed again before each change goes live.
05
Independence
Organisations
No logos, partner names or endorsements without written permission.
06
How an entry is made.
01
Draft
An entry starts as a plain description of what it is and the problem it addresses.
02
Source
Each claim is tied to evidence, or left out until it can be.
03
Review
People who know the field check the entry, its limits and its connections.
04
Publish
Reviewed entries go live, linked to the systems, solutions and projects they relate to.
Your questions, answered.
Quick answers about the platform and its content.
A climate innovation platform that maps systems, solutions and projects together, so it is easier to understand a challenge and find the approaches that address it.
From published research and practice. Every entry is reviewed by people who know the field and linked to the systems, solutions and projects it relates to.
Every claim needs a source, figures appear only when backed by one, and entries are reviewed by people who know the field. Our methodology sets out the rules.
Researchers, practitioners and organisations can help source, review and document entries. Get in touch through the contact page.
No. Working with an organisation is not an endorsement, and nothing is shown with an organisation's name or logo without its written permission.
