The highly anticipated Strategic ESG and Sustainability Impact Summit 2024 (SESI 24) will bring together top business leaders, policymakers, sustainability experts, and industry innovators from November 13–14, 2024, at the Labadi Beach Hotel, Accra. The summit aims to chart a transformative path towards a net-zero economy by aligning business strategies with crucial Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards in response to the escalating global climate crisis.
Hosted in collaboration with the Institute of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Ghana, SESI 24 is positioned as a leading platform to drive dialogue, foster collaboration, and inspire action across sectors. The event is themed “Towards a Net Zero Future for Businesses” and will focus on solutions that help companies pivot towards sustainability while contributing to Ghana’s national climate goals.
One of the most respected voices in sustainable development, Professor Douglas Boateng, will chair the summit. As a global authority on supply chain governance and ESG practices, Professor Boateng emphasized the urgency for businesses to act: “The future of African businesses and economies hinges on how we respond to the sustainability challenge. Achieving net-zero is not just a regulatory obligation—it is a strategic and moral imperative.”
SESI 24 will offer a robust lineup of keynote speeches, workshops, and panel discussions that explore pressing topics such as decarbonization, sustainable finance, the circular economy, and social impact governance. Attendees will gain access to cutting-edge technologies, innovative solutions, and regulatory frameworks essential for transitioning to net zero operations, both in Ghana and beyond.
A standout initiative of SESI 24 is the Sustainability Forest Project, which aims to plant 10,000 trees over the next two years. Each summit attendee will have the opportunity to offset their carbon footprint by planting a tree, reinforcing the event’s commitment to real-world climate resilience efforts.
Another exciting feature is the Green Manifesto Matrix, where presidential candidates from various political parties will present their strategic roadmaps for achieving net-zero goals in Ghana. This vital platform ensures that political leaders are aligned with the nation’s sustainability objectives, encouraging greater collaboration between the public and private sectors.
Aligned with Ghana’s Nationally Determined Contributions to the UNFCCC, SESI 24 offers a unique opportunity for business leaders, policymakers, and civil society to lead the charge toward a sustainable future. Join us to help shape a net-zero economy and create lasting impact across Africa.
