About us

Written Progress is a mission-driven, woman-led social enterprise dedicated to championing climate action.

Today's change-makers are stretched thin. They expertly navigating multiple roles, they lack the time for deep, uninterrupted work. They are also passionate experts who may struggle to take their audience's outside perspective on a complex topic.


This is where we come in. Our team, armed with technical acumen and journalistic prowess, steps into the shoes of your audience to translate your complex concepts into compelling narratives.


The result: winning grant applications -- and other proof-of-work documents -- that earn you the funding and stakeholder buy-in you need to amplify your impacts.
