Inclusive Economic Prosperity for All: An Integrated Stakeholder Approach ([link removed])

TOMORROW at 1pm ET
There is a massive need for investment in overlooked, under-resourced, and underestimated communities across the United States. The good news is that there are a growing number of communities taking ownership of their economies. There are more local developments and enterprises emerging that are helping to build more just, inclusive, and sustainable communities and economies. Learn about investable examples throughout the U.S. that are deploying capital, real estate, policy, design, and climate solutions to uplift their communities from within.

This conversation amongst Valerie Red-Horse Mohl (East Bay Community Foundation), Carmen Huertas-Noble (1 Worker 1 Vote), Damien Goodmon (Downtown Crenshaw), Clay Colombe (Rosebud Sioux Economy Development Corporation), April De Simone (Trahan Architects), and David Levine (moderator, American Sustainable Business Network) will cover compelling case-studies and the necessary public policy solutions required to implement this work on a broader scale.

Upcoming Events

April 13 - SEC's Director Renee Jones on Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors ([link removed])
*Members-only event*
Renee Jones, Director of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Corporation Finance will be addressing the SEC’s proposed rule that would enhance and standardize registrants’ climate-related disclosures for investors.

The enhancement and standardization of climate-related disclosures is overdue and urgently needed to help investors and American businesses compete effectively in an economy that needs to move faster than it is today towards decarbonization. Under today’s governance, businesses and investors working to decrease or eliminate their impact on the climate crisis do not have a level playing field when it comes to reporting and assessing climate-related topics and validating suitable investment choices. Investors and business owners, and consequently their impact on the climate crisis, will benefit from greater transparency and accountability proposed by the SEC.
