Events and Opportunities
We are seeking experts from the finance sector, academia and civil society worldwide to review and give feedback on our Draft Financial Institution Net-Zero Standard. The public consultation survey will be open until September 20.
We will also host a webinar to kick off the first pilot test, provide an overview of the development process, detail the contents of the latest draft and explain how to get involved in the public consultation.
We will hold two sessions on August 22 across time zones:
We are seeking to hire a technical partner that can provide support to the project team in writing the draft standard, integrating the outputs of other work packages into the final draft and supporting the project manager with project management, such as supporting Expert Advisory Group (EAG) meetings. Those interested should submit their proposals by August 29. Learn more about the request for proposal here >
