Equality issues have reached a tipping point.

Companies cannot just have a stance they must now act and there must be change.

Key sessions driving the dialogue:

• Social Justice Keynote: Ensuring an Inclusive Recovery
  Societal injustices and climate change are intrinsically linked, global warming only increasing inequalities worldwide. We have a generational opportunity to help build a greener and more just economy. To ensure this happens we must not make the mistakes of the past, there cannot be a green divide. Understand how to create an inclusive solution that connects the dots on social and environmental justice
  
• Corporate Activism: Time to Take a Stand
  Businesses have been increasingly embracing what is known as brand activism – taking a stand on social, environmental, or political issues. Now is the time for businesses to take the lead on key issues and drive real change within communities and across borders. Hear how to navigate this challenging approach and the benefits of doing so
  
• Diversity & Inclusion Keynote: Building a More Civil and Just Society
  Companies need to draw long-term plans for social inclusion and racial equality that go beyond announcements and new initiatives. Businesses must ask themselves tough questions and be open and honest about what they find – only then can we start to deliver real change
