On 14 October 2020 at 16:00 (CEST), UNGC is hosting a webinar on "Building A Water Resilient Future".
Businesses need to elevate their ambitions and actions to help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 and to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This webinar will highlight the Water Resilience Coalition’s role in bringing together businesses to set ambitious goals for water and to work collaboratively to build more water secure and resilient basins around the world. The Water Resilience Coalition calls on companies to join forces and work collaboratively with others to build resilient water systems that enable access to water so critical for good hygiene during this time of pandemic and can respond to the major impacts that climate change will have on this vital resource.
In this webinar, participants will learn:
- Why the water crisis is a significant risk to business and how climate impacts are exacerbating these risks;
- How leading companies are addressing the water crisis, including leading water strategies; and
- What companies can do to both manage their own risks and build long-term resilience.
