How to Reach Net Zero in the Aid Sector

The SDC hosted on August 21, 2023 the "Climate Action Accelerator" presentation by Bruno Jochum, Executive Director of this initiative

Event Summary

The Climate Action Accelerator, a non-for-profit initiative, aims to mobilise a critical mass of community organisations in order to scale up climate solutions, contain global warming below 2°C and avoid the risk of dangerous runaway climate change. The aim is to help shift the aid, health and higher education sectors towards a radical transformation of their practices, pursuing emissions reduction targets (-50% by 2030) and a "net zero" trajectory, in line with the Paris Agreement.
