Innovative Solutions — by our members and partners, for everybody.
Climate Justice, Diversity and Inclusion
Although these topics wouldn’t be considered as “solutions” or “innovations” by many, for us, it represents the fundamentals of Sustainability. Just like the Sustainable Development Goals demonstrate, social justice, environmental justice, include many topics. Food, water, healthy air for all. Everything is interconnected. And it starts with Climate Justice. Listening to Unheard voices. Building value chains with them, as part of our fragile ecosystem to create a fair balance, for them and our planet. An innovation is something new that hasn’t been done before. It doesn’t have to be high tech. It can be highly Human. Deep Social Change represents innovation. Climate Justice is a solution to many problems: it can empower the most vulnerable with the necessary tools and economics in order to nurture and protect our land, capture more CO2, avoid hunger and wars, empower communities and create infinite value chains. Learn more from our speakers representing unheard voices: Biodiversity, Indigenous and Island Communities, People with Disabilities and Health issues, Gender and Race. Learn More from our speakers. Or Start with an introduction to Climate Justice to understand why it also has an impact on every country here.
