Shaping the Narrative: Responsible Climate Leadership
Report from the 2023 Sun Valley Forum
This year's Sun Valley Forum included outstanding presentations on the power of storytelling to motivate climate action and reclaim the narrative of business's role in maintaining commitments to responsible environmental, social, and governance principles and practices. The latter is at risk by those who seek to quelch corporate climate leadership.
Expertise
We believe in science and expertise. We believe in the Paris Agreement on climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals. We bring practical knowledge derived from success in national policy making, multilateral action, corporate leadership and capital innovation, with science as our foundation.
Nature
We believe in the power of restoring natural systems. In a time of big stakes, we deliver systemic solutions with co-benefits for people and planet that create prosperity. Because of the vital role that natural systems play in reducing risk and creating opportunities, preserving and restoring nature is at the heart of our goal to build a more equitable and resilient world.
Story
We believe in the power of art and storytelling to inspire and engage. We build visions and compelling narratives that shift how we see our natural world by celebrating nature and humanity through art and story. Art and culture are integral to a healthy society, providing learnings from our past, perspectives on our present, and pathways to our future.
Community
We believe in human connection. More than ever, we recognize the power of community and connection to strengthen individual and collective wellbeing. As we build the world we need, community builds the foundation of trusted relationships needed to take courageous action. By bringing people together for something greater than themselves, we inspire purpose and accelerate impact from collective knowledge.
Empowerment
We believe every person must have the chance to live up to their fullest potential. We shape systems that create economic opportunity for the most vulnerable, ensuring all can learn, raise their voice, and grow. Only when we all are empowered with resources and opportunity can we surface the diverse solutions needed to achieve a just, resilient, and thriving world for all.
