SteelWatch
SteelWatch is a pioneering new international civil society organisation driving decarbonisation, transformation, and corporate accountability across the steel sector. We bring urgency, scrutiny, and a vigilant voice to transforming steel production. Our vision is a steel sector that underpins a thriving zero-emissions economy. Our mission is to turbo-charge the transformation to a decarbonised steel sector that enables our environment, communities, and workers to thrive. Our first priority is that by 2030 steel companies have stopped relining blast furnaces, and align themselves with the 1.5C warming limit set out in the Paris Climate Agreement. We are registered in the Netherlands and operate internationally, currently mainly in Europe and East Asia.
