Our Ocean 2018: Lunchtime conference on Sustainable Blue Economy Finance Principles
date: 23/10/2018
Financial institutions and organisations with a keen interest in sustainable finance present at the conference, are warmly invited to attend this open event.
The event is part of an international campaign to build a coalition of financial institutions that endorse the Sustainable Blue Economy Finance Principles and demonstrate their support for healthy oceans in their investment decisions.
Since their launch at the World Ocean Summit in March 2018, this initiative is attracting new signatures day by day, from public and private investors around the world. With each new signature, the impact gets bigger. If adopted widely, these principles can help transform the way in which humanity manages ocean resources, showing how profitability can go hand in hand with environmental and social stewardship.
Join our lunchtime event to find out more about this initiative and learn how you can join!
