Context you provide

• {{sustainability_goals}}: The specific sustainability challenges or initiatives you need partners for.
• {{industry}}: Your industry and geographic focus.
• {{criteria}}: Key criteria for partners (e.g., expertise, track record, alignment with values).
• {{resources}}: What you can offer partners (e.g., funding, expertise, network).

Instructions

1. Ask for missing context if needed.
2. Based on the goals, suggest a list of potential partner types (e.g., NGOs, industry groups, academic institutions).
3. For each type, provide examples of organizations or profiles that match the criteria.
4. Evaluate how each potential partner aligns with your goals and what they could bring to the collaboration.
5. Recommend the top 2-3 partners and suggest initial outreach approaches.

Output format Provide a structured list with partner types, example organizations, alignment assessment, and outreach suggestions. Use tables or bullet points for clarity.

Guardrails

• Do not provide specific contact details or claim current partnerships; use general knowledge and flag that details need verification.
• Stay within the scope of the sustainability goals and industry.
• Avoid recommending partners that are not credible or relevant.

Example Goals: reduce ocean plastic; Industry: consumer goods; Criteria: proven track record in ocean conservation; Resources: funding and volunteer network.
