#Future of Talks: The Future of Climate Leadership

Monday, 11 February 2019 12:53

This year, Business for Peace has launched an afterwork series with MESH in Oslo. Following our first event, The Future of Cities, we’re happy to announce our second afterwork talk, The Future of Climate Leadership. During this conversation, we will explore what role businesses have to play in shifting the economy to avert impending crises caused by climate change. We will also address how businesses and civil society are working to reduce negative environmental impact and how they plan to take the lead in revolutionising our societies to be part of the solution.

Speakers:

Join us 21 February at 18:00 for expert business perspectives from: 

  • Anders Lennartsson, Sustainability Manager at IKEA Norway
  • Jan Kristensen, Vice President and Head of Supply Chain Sustainability and Environment/Climate at Telenor Group. 
  • Karoline Andaur, Deputy CEO of WWF Norway, will join to represent the views of civil society.
