It aims to provide companies with the ability to review their own purchasing practices as well as a set of concrete responsible practices to potentially implement.

Convened by the United Nations Global Compact, the United Nations Environment Programme and UN Climate Change, the 14th Annual High-Level Meeting of Caring for Climate will bring together senior leaders from business, government, finance, civil society and the United Nations to advance credible climate implementation.

At a time of growing political, economic and climate pressures, the meeting will explore how climate ambition can be sustained and translated into credible transition plans, investment decisions and measurable implementation.

Bærekraft rapporteres i dag i stort omfang, men rapportering alene overbeviser ikke et styre. Det som overbeviser er avkastning: hvilken effekt har bærekraftsarbeidet på lønnsomhet, risiko og langsiktig verdiskapning. For bærekraftsledere er oppgaven ikke lenger bare å dokumentere innsats, den er å bygge et forretningsargument som holder i styrerommet og i markedet.

Hvordan omsettes bærekraftstiltak til tall styret forstår? Hvilket narrativ får eierne til å se bærekraft som en investering, ikke en kostnad? Og hvordan formidles den samme historien utad, til kunder, investorer og samarbeidspartnere, uten at den mister kraft?

Dette danner utgangspunkt for en felles diskusjon om hvordan deltakerne selv jobber med å vise verdien av bærekraft, og hvor det fortsatt er vanskelig å få gjennomslag.



Deltakelse på samlingen er forbeholdt deltakere i Nettverk for bærekraftsledere med strategisk og/eller operativt ansvar for bærekraft i egen bedrift.  

Businesses rely on healthy ecosystems for raw materials, clean water and resilient supply chains. Understanding how an organization both depends on and impacts the natural world has become a prerequisite for its long-term performance.

Organized in collaboration with the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), this webinar explains why nature needs a place on the corporate agenda and how to make a start in practice.

Participants will:

• Gain an overview of the tools and guidance available, including an input from TNFD

• Learn about the first steps businesses take when starting to engage on nature

• Hear examples and good practices

The session concludes with a Q&A, giving participants the opportunity to ask their own questions.

The UN GCD Supply Chain Dialogue 2026 brings together companies, suppliers, and rightsholder representatives to explore how human rights due diligence (HRDD) can become more effective, collaborative, and impactful.

The second session of the UN GCD Supply Chain Dialogue 2026 focuses on labour migration in the Middle East and brings companies into dialogue with Migrant Forum in Asia (MFA), a regional network of NGOs, migrant worker organisations, trade unions and advocates working to protect and promote the rights and welfare of migrant workers in Asia.

The session will examine the specific human rights risks that migrant workers may face throughout the migration cycle – from recruitment and pre-departure processes to employment, wage payment, access to social protection and return. MFA will share perspectives from its regional network and discuss how recruitment systems, cross-border supply chains and business practices can affect the rights and dignity of migrant workers.

Moving beyond a compliance-based approach, participants will explore how companies can strengthen human rights due diligence by identifying risks at an early stage, engaging meaningfully with migrant workers and their organisations, and improving access to remedy. The discussion will also address how companies can contribute to fairer recruitment practices, prevent wage theft and ensure that migrant workers’ rights are respected across complex supply chains.
