On the agenda

In an era of rapid change, directors and leaders must remain proactive to be able to drive their organisations forward.  And that starts with a deep understanding of the climate governance landscape.

CLIMATE SCIENCE 2025: WHAT BOARDS NEED TO KNOW

Experts translate the latest climate science into board-relevant insights on key concepts like global warming thresholds, tipping points and the physical risks most relevant to Australian organisations.

MANDATORY CLIMATE REPORTING: EARLY INSIGHTS

Directors, regulators and climate reporting specialists reflect on the first year of mandatory climate reporting. What worked, what surprised, and where are the gaps in capability or confidence?

BEYOND THE FIELD: CLIMATE GOVERNANCE & SPORT

As well as shaping Australian culture, sport faces mounting climate risks. How can sporting bodies embed climate governance while leveraging their unique platform to drive broader climate awareness?

FINANCING THE TRANSITION: BUILDING THE BUSINESS CASE

Transitioning to a low-carbon economy requires more than ambition—it demands capital, credibility and a clear business case. Hear how directors can help align sustainability goals with financial performance.
