The Future of Falklands Business

With global climate change becoming an ever-present concern, it is now more important than ever that businesses consider their long-term effects on the local and global environment, and how they can continue to flourish in the future.

We’ve brought together organisations from across our community to discuss what they are already doing within their organisations, how environmental changes can benefit their business, how the meaning of ‘value’ is being redefined, and what new business opportunities may arise from these changes.

Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth… these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women’s empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all.

Ban Ki-moon, Eighth Secretary-General of the United Nations

A Pledge We Can All Be Proud Of

The overall aim of the Falkland Islands Environmental Business Symposium is to make progress towards agreeing to an environmental pledge that organisations working in the Falkland Islands can sign up to. 

This is our first session bringing together groups from across our community, and finding a way forward that will work for businesses of all shapes and sizes in the Islands won’t be easy. This will only be the first step on an exciting journey we hope to take with the whole of the Falkland Islands business community. We are all in this together!
