Climate Justice 2022 – Day 2

Hosted with the Corporate Responsibility Initiative, Harvard Kennedy School, Change by Degrees and INJAZ Egypt.

In this session we explored the practical solutions being developed by inspiring young entrepreneurs that help vulnerable people adapt to and mitigate the risks of climate change. We unpacked the challenges young entrepreneurs face in achieving scale, and how larger companies, in partnership with government and civil society, can help them succeed.

In this session we learned from the latest thinking and practical examples of youth entrepreneurs delivering people-centred climate-just solutions. We came away with valuable insights on how you can increase your impact through partnerships to support young entrepreneurs.
