Tule mukaan UN Global Compactin webinaariin, jossa keskustellaan PK-yritysten roolista esimerkiksi ilmastonmuutoksen vastaisessa työssä.
Organized by the United Nations Global Compact, Rabobank, and Global Compact Local Networks in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, How European SMEs can Contribute to a Green Recovery will bring together a diverse group of European SMEs to catalyze engagement with the Business Ambition for 1.5C campaign, and use the new streamlined route for small- and medium-sized businesses by SBTi to set science-based climate targets.
SMEs are increasingly called to join efforts with the UN Global Compact on the issue of climate change. As countries work on economic aid and recovery packages in response to COVID-19, and as they prepare to submit enhanced national climate plans under the Paris Agreement, we are calling on European SMEs to contribute to a Green Recovery. The EU aims to be climate neutral by 2050. This is an opportunity to discuss what restructuring the economy means.
Aika: 16.11. klo 11.00
Tilaisuus on avoin kaikille Global Compactin jäsenyritysten ja -yhteisöjen työntekijöille.

Greetings from Geneva! Join us on International Human Rights Day for an interactive debrief session on the UN Business and Human Rights Forum 2025! The Forum – organised this year for the 14th time – is the world's largest annual gathering on business and human rights.
The regulatory frameworks governing corporate actions in the context of sustainability and corporate responsibility issues are evolving rapidly. After a long period mainly shaped by industry self-regulation, companies now face comprehensive expectations, detailed both in soft law standards and – increasingly – hard law.
This webinar will explore how those in the construction industry can embed just transition principles into corporate reporting, aligning with frameworks such as TCFD and CSRD. Speakers will discuss setting measurable goals, improving transparency, and strengthening governance and accountability for long-term impact.
