Annual Review 2022

Our Annual Review looks back at the impact the IKEA Foundation and our partners made for people and planet last year.

In a world where poverty and climate change are making the future for children and their families less secure than ever, we need to collaborate on an unprecedented scale. That’s why we worked with 147 partners around the world in 2022, providing them with over €260 million in grants to create sustainable livelihoods and protect our planet.

Through these grants, we’re funding programmes that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote climate action and power communities with renewable energy. We’re supporting people living in poverty – including people forced to flee their homes – to build planet-positive livelihoods in agriculture and create green businesses. And we’ve engaged more than 100 IKEA co-workers as ambassadors to inspire the wider IKEA community.
