The inaugural International Conference on ESG and Climate Governance will take place at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands, 26 and 28 June 2023. The event will bring together academic experts, practitioners, and board directors from six continents to discuss theoretical and practical challenges to global climate action. The conference is a global collaboration between the Centre for Climate Engagement and Climate Governance Initiative, based at the University of Cambridge, and the SMU Sim Kee Boon Institute for Financial Economics (SKBI) – with support from the Singapore Green Finance Centre (SGFC). Professor Dave Fernandez, Director of SKBI and Co-Director of SGFC said, “Sustainability is a topic which is gaining traction because of the climate crisis. This topic is not going to go away, and we must as a society keep up with the changing times. This is why we have made Sustainable Finance one of the core areas of focus at our institute.” A side event discussing the key actions from the conference will follow the conference, hosted by Climate Governance Singapore, for which SMU is a knowledge partner.
