Five headshots of four men and one woman stacked on top of each other with the text "The continued and increasing ambition of climate-concerned asset owners" to the left.

In the face of headline-grabbing pullbacks and withdrawals of climate ambition among some actors, a group of climate-concerned asset owners has continued and even increased climate investing commitments and ambition. In this session, a spectrum of different asset owners will share the rationale behind their respective portfolio climate commitments and the approaches they are taking to achieve their goals.

Our panelists will discuss in practical terms what it took to set these goals and how they are being implemented including setting sub-goals, tracking performance, and stewardship. They will share the benefits and challenges of these efforts and reflections on how other asset owners, whether just beginning or already very advanced, can take the next steps in their portfolios’ climate journeys.

This event is a part of Queen’s University’s participation in #SDGMonthCanada, a nation-wide commitment to mobilizing the SDGs across campuses.

Open to all audiences, this event is virtual and free to attend.
