The Paris Agreement requires financial flows to follow a pathway towards low GHG emissions. To implement this, how can data and standards accelerate the climate transition in the financial sector? Answers will be provided through an immersive role-playing game. Take part and bring your own expertise to the table!

Article 2.1(c) of Paris Agreement requires financial flows to follow a pathway towards low GHG emissions. To implement this, standards and data are needed. ISSB and NZDPU aim at responding to this challenge in a close future. We question how it can accelerate the climate transition in the financial sector.

This workshop will allow participants to discuss a case study. Each group will represent a key stakeholder perspective and will address the question under the point of view of this stakeholder. A team leader will orientate the debates. Team leaders will then be sharing on stage their view in an open discussion moderated by Olivia Kinghorst

This event is part of the Building Bridges Action Days, which comprise a crowd-sourced program of over 65 events planned by the Building Bridges Community in a range of formats that stimulate deeper levels of dialogue and collaboration including : panel discussions, fishbowl conversations, workshops, and research presentation.
