Positive Impact Consultation Workshop 2

On September 25th 2015, countries adopted the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a set of goals to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all as part of a new sustainable development agenda.

An estimated $5-7 trillion a year until 2030 are needed to realize the SDGs worldwide. Making the connection between needs and funds at the necessary scale proves difficult today, and it has been clearly identified that financing will need to come primarily from private sources.

How can the multi trillions SDGs market be tapped in practice?

In January 2017 UNEP FI, in partnership with WBCSD and PWC, will release a grounding paper that will reflect on the scale and nature of the SDG opportunity, the ways in which some business and financing models are already starting to shift, and how business and finance can work together to bring about a real transformation.

Join this workshop to discover the work that is underway and share your own insights on how to bank the unbankable.
