Our Model

A unique way of working and a unique model

Responsible 100 enables the individuals and organisations collaborating here to build and share resources which create collective capacity and agency.

Participants* pay modest fees and they contribute their stories. To be shared and seen by other businesses and by partner organisations, these stories must be guaranteed as complete, accurate and verifiable. We anticipate that most participating organisations will make most of their stories available to one another and, in time, available for public scrutiny, comment and rating as well.

Given the value of participation increases every time a new participant submits a new story, our pricing is designed to incentivise participants to submit as many as possible, and in as short a time as possible.

* We mostly refer to Responsible 100 ‘participants’ because the organisations going through our supported steps are not-for-profits, NGOs, government and civil society organisations, as well as businesses. Partners (experts that support the development of the benchmarks) may also be participants (by going through Responsible 100’s steps and submitting their stories and scores) if they so choose.
