The Definitive Sustainability Summit

This sustainability week provides a dynamic platform to further discuss pressing sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG) challenges by fostering collaboration between business leaders, policymakers, and sustainability experts.

Sustainability and ESG are critical as they ensure that businesses and economies prioritise long-term sustainability frameworks, ESG driven key performance indicators (KPI’s) driving economic growth while conserving natural resources and fostering social equity in Botswana.

Africa, and globally, sustainability and ESG principles assist in mitigating climate risks, attract responsible investment and create resilient economies that balance profitability with positive societal and environmental impact.
