Episode 3: How finance can boost climate action and social justice

Esther Pan Sloane, Head of the Partnerships, Policy and Communications at the UN Capital Development Fund, reflects on how businesses, consumers and investors are embracing social justice and climate targets. In this episode, Esther discusses ESG commitments from a macro and micro perspective. She shares the inside view of how nations came together to set ambitious and wide-ranging UN sustainable development goals. And she explains the steps her NYC-based family take, from composting to personal investments. “I would ask every person to think about their own ability to act,” says Esther. “Please consider yourself and your power as an individual to direct your assets towards companies and activities that are consistent with your values”. This is the third episode in our 30 For Net Zero 30 series. In each episode, Ashurst partner Anna-Marie Slot speaks with climate action champions across the globe about real steps to take now towards 2030 goals.
