FFF#19: Water. On Responsibility, Influence & Future Leadership

Together with Helen Göthe, Human Rights Strategy Manager at Lindex, Azman Ahmed Chowdhury, Country Director at WaterAid Bangladesh, and Julia Schalk, Director of Policy and Programme Partnerships at WaterAid Sweden, we'll explore why water matters, perhaps more now than ever. We'll hear more about the realities facing communities in Bangladesh, discuss what responsible business leadership looks like in a water-constrained world and reflect on how companies can help shape a more resilient future for both people, planet and industry. The talk will also highlight how access to water, sanitation and hygiene can support gender equality and improve the lives of workers and communities.

It will all be in English and take place both in person and online. We'll finish when we feel we're done, but no later than 10:00 AM. Please RSVP by 15 November. For those who wish to attend in person, places are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

The meeting link will be sent out the day before (please check your junk folder!).

See you soon!
