Panel Discussion: The Business of Climate Change - Why Climate Change Matters to Every Organisation - 5 November 2009 Geneva 18:00

For further details and registration see www.gwit.ch
Organised by Geneva Women in International Trade (GWIT)
Climate change presents private and public sector organisations with a range of opportunities to reduce costs, differentiate products, express values, and work with suppliers and consumers in new ways.
In early December 2009, the 15th Conference of the Parties of the UN Climate Change Conference will meet in Copenhagen with the ambition to secure a global agreement that involves all countries. Learn about what's on the table for discussion, who the key players are, where the opportunities are, how the outcomes are relevant to your organisation, initiatives and tools that can make a real difference.
(Event open to the public)
Join us for a facilitated discussion by experts gathered to discuss these timely issues in the lead up to Copenhagen.
