A Three Capitals webinar with the UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance

We are delighted to announce the third instalment of our Three Capitals Webinars series with the Oxford University Societies in Mexico City and Washington DC.

Mark Carney (St Peter’s and Nuffield) will speak to us on “The UN private finance agenda: how to ensure every financial system takes climate change into account”.

Mr Carney currently serves as the United Nations Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance.  Earlier in his career, he served as the Governor of the Bank of Canada, then Governor of the Bank of England.

Time: 10h00 Ottawa (09h00 Mexico City, 10h00 Washington DC)
Registration: At Zoom Webinars

Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our time.  Countries everywhere are struggling with competing pressures to address long-term existential climate risks on the one hand, and to meet immediate-term economic imperatives on the other.  Is it possible for markets to internalise the costs of climate change, so economic forces foster climate action?

As always, registration is free, but places are limited, and will be allocated first-come-first-served.
