Tharawat Family Business Forum releases report addressing climate action for family enterprises

The Tharawat Family Business Forum launched a first-of-its-kind report to address the realities of climate change and environmental sustainability in the MENA and explores the role family-owned companies will play in building a more sustainable future. The report, “Climate Change and Family Business: Action for a Sustainable Future in the MENA”, highlights the latest climate developments globally and regionally, outlines the role that family firms play in mitigating climate risks and explores ways to implement mechanisms that will drive corporate sustainability.

The report was developed with the support of the AW Rostamani Group, knowledge partner, Global Compact Network UAE, and 12 contributing experts and business leaders. An editor’s committee with members from five different MENA countries was established to provide oversight and guide the further development of the report.
