In 2023, Chapter Zero partnered with McKinsey for a three-part event series that explored the impact non-executive directors (NEDs) can have in the boardroom to help their organisations achieve net zero. The third session, held on 8 November, set the scene for COP28 and how to address key points raised, and initiatives formed, at COP28 in the boardroom. We have summarised below the key takeaways of this event.

COP refers to the United Nations’ annual conference on climate change. Its 28th meeting (COP28) is scheduled to begin November 30, 2023, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. McKinsey explains the background and significance.

This briefing, produced by the Climate Governance Initiative, explores and discusses the context of the proposed SEC climate disclosure rule, the current status and likely next steps, and provides key questions for board directors to ask their boards in relation to it.
