SUMMARY:CDP’s Global Water Forum
DESCRIPTION:CDP’s Global Water Forum opens its invitation for its online Forum on March 22nd to celebrate World Water Day. The event will be recorded and distributed to all registrants. \nWater smart economies: Worsening water security is a material risk for the global economy and the private sector faces financial and supply risks that can no longer be ignored. \nAlthough action is being taken\, incremental changes are insufficient to deal with the scale of the challenge. Instead\, more strategic action from the business and finance communities is needed to deliver a water secure\, resilient economy and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. \nJoin us to explore the opportunities emerging from the transition away from traditional forms of business management\, towards new and innovative approaches to water stewardship and how investors are favoring the allocation of capital towards a water secure economy. In support of this CDP will be providing insight into the latest trends in corporate water stewardship from CDP’s 2018 Global Water Report. \nThe time for debating the materiality of water security issues is over. The time for action is now. \nConfirmed speakers: \n\nCate Lamb\, Director of Water Security\, CDP\nPaul Simpson\, CEO\, CDP\nWilhem Mohn\, Head of Sustainability Initiatives\, Ownership Strategies at Norges Bank Investment\n\nAdditional speakers and full agenda will be announced ahead of the event. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here
