Business Fights Poverty COP 26 Summit

Business Fights Poverty hosted three days of highly interactive events bringing together voices and insights from across the globe, from business, NGOs, academia and government. Leaders shared the latest thinking on the role of business in ensuring climate justice. Connections were deepened and new relationships were built to drive forward collaborative action.

Dr Tara Shine participated in today’s “How do Businesses Put People at the Heart of Climate Action?” online webinar.

Climate change is affecting people. But it affects us unequally and in different ways. This session examined why, where and what business action looks like – to help people everywhere become more resilient and more prepared for climate change. Tara was a panellist alongside Katie Hoard and Lisa Manley, with moderation by Katie Hyson.
