Climate Change is a Social Crisis: How Social Entrepreneurs can Shape the Climate Response
The true tragedy of climate change is that the communities most affected by it are the ones that did the least to contribute to it. Extreme climate events disproportionately disadvantage the socially vulnerable. Issues such as poor health, food security and economic security are tightly linked to the climate crisis. This event will bring together social entrepreneurs and sustainability experts to shed light on the social dimension of climate change. In particular, the event will highlight how social innovators can help to ensure that climate action results in socially equitable outcomes.
