About The Event
The United Nations Global Compact Academy’s COP31 Debrief will examine the summit’s key outcomes and what they mean for businesses in Kenya. For companies making decisions about where to invest, how to protect critical assets, and how to keep supply chains operating through climate disruptions, the summit offers insights that can inform business planning. The session will explore how companies can apply those insights to manage climate risks, strengthen resilience, and identify opportunities for growth and innovation.
The debrief will also build on discussions from the high-level Caring for Climate meeting, where business and United Nations leaders highlighted the need to embed science-based climate targets in strategy, operations, and investment decisions, and to measure and report progress on emissions reductions. It will consider how collaboration with governments and financial institutions can help address barriers such as limited access to finance and inadequate infrastructure, and what these discussions mean for companies setting their climate priorities for 2027.
