Webinar: How can we prevent SDG washing?
Join us in an inspirational conversation with Ben Carpenter, CEO of Social Value International at (SVI) Social Value International. SVI is a network of networks, united by a shared mission to change the way the world accounts for value.
The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals Report from 2017 cites that “the rate of progress in many areas is far slower than needed to meet the targets by 2030,” flagging the urgency to accelerate action. While working hard towards achieving global goals, how can we prevent overclaiming?
Topics of discussion:
What is Sustainable Development Goals Washing?
Why is it essential to avoid SDG washing?
What is a good Impact Management practice for SDG alignment?
How to take actionable steps for longterm learning?
What role Social Value International and Impact Management Project play in preventing SDG washing?Conversation between:

Webinar: Next Economy Investing During Volatile Times
It’s a scary time around the world, including, but certainly not limited to, stock market volatility and COVID-19 fears. We want to help you make the best long-term decisions regarding your investments so that you have the capital you need, when you need it. We are hosting a webinar to enable you to hear directly from Green Alpha’s portfolio managers Garvin Jabusch and Jeremy Deems, and ask them questions in real time. They will share their thoughts on a variety of topics, including:
- why our client accounts have been fossil fuel free since our inception in 2008, and why that matters now more than ever,
- why we have always, and will always, seek technology and innovation-oriented solutions to our greatest system-level risks, across sectors and market cap sizes,
- how our portfolios are performing,
- why equity investments remain important to achieving long-term financial goals, and
- why investors should consider actively-managed portfolios vs passive investment vehicles.
The webinar is scheduled for an hour, with prepared remarks planned for the first 30 minutes, and the full second half reserved for your questions.
- Wednesday, April 8th
