Western Europe

 

Western European Forum

The Western European Forum (WEF) is an informal network of signatories from the region, whose aim it is to promote active participation in UNEP FI.

It acts as a platform through which Western European Signatories can obtain and exchange information on a number of key sustainability issues specific to the finance and insurance sectors.

The WEF works closely with the existing regional Task Forces, as most Western European Signatories have subsidiaries in other regions. This also provides Signatories the opportunity to share knowledge with companies in those regions, through the provision of training and resources.

UNEP FI will endeavour to maintain the Forum as a yearly occurrence that will travel throughout Europe. Sub-regional and national meetings will be geared to feed into the annual, region-wide forum.

Structure

The Western European Region encompasses five categories:

  1. French Signatories
  2. German-speaking Signatories
  3. Nordic Signatories
  4. United Kingdom Signatories
  5. Other Western European Signatories
