Business can stand #WithRefugees  through the #COVID19  crisis—our latest webinar with our partners in the Business Refugee Action Network showed how. @EleanorCPaton  shares 3 key takeaways any company can carry forward.

"By achieving large-scale economic transformation that dismantles the carbon economy, we have an opportunity to...undo the injustices at the heart of our modern system." 100+ economists agree: recovery must mean a #JustTransition  to a #netzero  economy.

Youth are powerful, determined, ambitious, passionate, inclusive and conscious. Let their voices and demands be heard on #YouthDay  and beyond. This is what #GenerationEquality  looks like. @UN_Women 

Around the world, youth are on the frontlines of climate activism. Here are just a few of their stories—and a reminder for us all to not only listen, but take #ClimateAction  in line with their calls. #YouthDay 

The UK is stepping up to help keep the promise of the #ParisAgreement . With a strengthened UK 2030 target, business has the confidence to go further, faster—accelerating a #zerocarbon  transition to a #GreenRecovery .

Congratulations to B Team Leader, @NOIweala , on being named the next Director-General of the @wto ! As the organization’s first female and first African DG, her appointment further highlights the need for transformative leadership. #ChangeWhoToChangeHow  #WTODG 

Intentions are important, but actions speak louder than words. On this #InternationalWomensDay , we challenge you to ask yourselves: who are you going to choose to be and how will you contribute to the building of a more equitable future? #TheBTeam  #ChangeWHOtoChangeHOW  #IWD2021 

#BTeam leader Ajay Banga’s nomination to lead the @WorldBank  is a momentous occasion. Ajay is a truly global citizen w/ a deep commitment to climate action & financial inclusion, and a record of success forging cross-sector partnerships around the world.
