PLENARY SESSION - Business Leaders for an Inclusive Green Deal


We are addressing the following SDGs:

Speakers

After the pandemic and amid the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, the world needs to accelerate the journey towards climate neutrality and the adoption of an inclusive approach to the green and digital transition. However, the lack of preparedness to disruptions to workforces, supply chains, communities, and consumers caused by the war and the transition to net-zero, risk exacerbating inequalities within and between countries.

In line with its welfare state experience, Europe is taking the lead to leave no one behind in this transformation with the Green Deal, REPowerEU, the European Pillar of Social Rights Action Plan, the Just Transition Mechanism, and the NextGenerationEU Programme

Join this session to learn how European policymakers, businesses, and investors are currently designing and implementing Just Transition strategies, guidelines, and collaborations at international, European, and local level. The event will mark a step forward toward the creation of a wider EU Business Alliance for Just Transition and incubation of sector and cross-sector public-private partnerships to scale up Just Transition plans and their impacts.

CSR Europe will launch Business for Just Transition. The publication features the European Business Roadmap for a Just Transition and the second edition of the European Sustainable Industry Barometer (view the first edition). The European Business Roadmap for a Just Transition, developed by CSR Europe’s People Leaders Hub, provide a guide for companies to build their own Just Transition plans in Europe. The Barometer, developed in collaboration with Moody’s ESG Solutions, provides data on the social dimension of the ESG efforts of European industry federations and companies. The report demonstrates the progresses made and where additional efforts are needed.
