Workshop: Setting Science-Based Targets

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is an NGO partnership (CDP, UN Global Compact, WRI, WWF) that provides a framework for companies to set Greenhouse Gas Emission reduction targets based on the latest available science. The initiative aims to assist companies in setting science-based emission reduction targets in line with the level of decarbonization required to keep global temperature increase below 2℃, as described in the fifth Assessment Report of the IPCC and agreed under the Paris Agreement in 2015.

This workshop, organized ahead of the April 15^th deadline for submitting targets to the SBTi to count for CDP scoring, aims to provide resources and guidance to aid your company in this journey, with a hands-on approach.

The event will start in the morning with a plenary session and continue in the afternoon, with break-out sessions. You can find below the preliminary agenda for the day:

09:00 – 09:30 am Arrival

09:30 – 10:00 am Welcome notes
