    Making the Business Case for Climate Smart Investments

    United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)

    Climate change, described by UNEP FI as the greatest market failure in history, threatens global well-being and stability. The private sector plays a key role in mitigation. These guidelines help tourism businesses—especially accommodation providers and event organizers—identify funding sources and develop finance proposals for low-emission, climate-resilient operations.

    Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes
