Description :

When financing the transition to net zero, a pivotal question stands - are people sufficiently considered amidst this transformative journey? The program segment unravels the complexities surrounding climate transition, delving into geographical and socio-economical considerations that either prioritise or marginalise people. Navigating this conundrum, the fireside chat seeks to illuminate the challenges and opportunities in crafting financial solutions that not only mitigate environmental impact but also prioritise inclusivity and social equity.
