Session information
Breakout session 3: ESG and the climate transition in Latin America
Tuesday 16 March (1000 - 1100)
Description
Where ESG and sustainability obligations now bite in practice: disclosure and reporting regimes, carbon and biodiversity markets, supply chain and deforestation rules and financing tied to transition commitments. This session will also look at where Latin America itself stands: a region whose abundance of natural resources and land is both its biggest ESG opportunity — carbon markets, biodiversity credits, renewable resources, sustainable agriculture — and its central paradox, caught between monetising and protecting the same natural capital.
