The private sector is vital in achieving the 1.5°C target and a net-zero future by 2050. The UN Global Compact Network USA’s Climate and Environment portfolio empowers companies to enhance and scale their climate action strategies in alignment with the Paris Agreement and UN SDGs. This portfolio provides companies across the United States with a range of engagement, action, and learning opportunities from water stewardship to biodiversity, climate mitigation to adaptation, and peer learning groups to think labs. One of the portfolio’s key programmatic offerings is the Climate Ambition Accelerator, which helps companies of all sizes and sectors set Science-Based Targets and scale credible climate action.

Join us for a panel and interactive discussions to learn how your company can engage with the UN Global Compact Network USA to scale its climate action strategies. This event will convene corporate sustainability leaders, UN officials, and other experts in the space who will highlight their experience participating in our climate-related programs as well as practical strategies for setting and implementing Science-Based targets. Participants’ discussions will contribute to a one-page briefing highlighting the primary concerns of the private sector in addressing climate change.
