WWF supports the following twelve calls to action outlined in the European Pact:
 

1. Guide the next 5-year legislative cycle with the European Pact for the Future—a green and social deal for a one-planet economy.
2. Address the linked triple planetary crises of climate, biodiversity, and pollution comprehensively.
3. Reduce resource use and transition towards a Circular Economy; shift also to a wellbeing economy.
4. Enhance resilience and competitiveness in sectors crucial for sustainability.
5. Drive systemic change through investments, fair taxation, and equitable distribution.
6. Simplify the adoption of safe and sustainable choices for both individuals and businesses.
7. Develop a new social contract that ensures no one is left behind.
8. Enhance environmental democracy and give a voice to youth and marginalised groups.
9. Strengthen solidarity across an enlarging European Union.
10. Commit to global justice and foster partnerships to address common challenges.
11. Implement and enforce EU legislation to protect the rule of law and public health.
12. Reinforce EU governance and foster trust in the European Project.

However, WWF currently does not have a position on issues of wealth taxation and minimum income, and therefore refrains from commenting on these matters.
