🌱 Breaking Into Climate Work: A Truly Inspiring Evening Exploring Green Careers  🌱  Last Monday marked the final Impactful Careers event of 2024, and what a night it was! Our panel featured professionals from consulting, reporting, storytelling, data, tech, and climate justice, showcasing how their roles are driving real change in tackling climate challenges. Conversations continued long after the panel, as participants and speakers connected over mulled wine and mince pies. 💬 One attendee, Frankie Dewar (LIS: The London Interdisciplinary School), captured the evening’s magic:   "Tonight’s panel was amazing, but I also loved chatting with others in the room. Conversations included making mechanical worms to restore soil, the role of funerals in political negotiation, and reimagining Maslow's hierarchy of needs." ✨ Thank you to our brilliant panelists (Hannah Phang, The Now Work, Helen Fisher, Context Group, Nicu Calcea, Global Witness, Emmanuel Hanley-Lloyd, ClientEarth, Milijov Vagic,  SamudraOceans) and everyone who joined us to connect, learn, and inspire! Applications for our free Impactful Careers programme are open until early January—don’t miss this chance to shape your meaningful future - https://lnkd.in/eva-sJb4  #ClimateCareers #SustainabilityLeaders #BreakingIntoClimateWork  

🔦 Today we’re turning the spotlight on our wonderful B-Corp community here at The Conduit. The group is headed up by community champion Anwen Cooper, and meets up monthly for an informal ‘lunch and learn’ in the Ubuntu Bar Snug, with a guest speaker talking for around 15 minutes, and a roundtable discussion afterwards. Since launching in March 2024, the group has already tackled some big B-Corp-related questions and topics, including: ↳ Can you trust a B-Corp? ↳ How effective giving can empower your business to become a real force for good ↳ How B-Corp can be the start rather than the destination for your business to make a greater positive impact ↳ How we can move beyond GDP to a more purpose-driven ‘wellbeing economy’ Our B-Corp Community group is just one of the many formed here at The Conduit, allowing members to connect over shared interests and challenges. —-- 🌱 The Conduit is a members’ club bringing together people committed to creating a just, prosperous and sustainable future 👉 Members, you can join the B-Corp Community WhatsApp group via your member app
