"Pursuing Climate Justice within Environmental, Social and Governance Investment Frameworks,"

Synergies exist between Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investment frameworks and the Principles of Climate Justice. The finance sector presides over a large pool of capital that potentially could be steered towards more low carbon, climate resilient activities that are good for people and the planet. While more investors are addressing climate change as part of a broader approach to ESG investing, the notion of climate justice has not yet entered the narrative.

The aim of this paper is to explore how, by incorporating climate justice, the investment community can play a pivotal role in achieving a safe future underpinned by shared and durable prosperity.
