TPC (Tsao Pao Chee); No.17 Foundation; Catalyst Now; Climate KIC; FBN (Family Business Network); Global Citizen; NUS Centre for Governance and Sustainability; OceanX; Philanthropy Asia Alliance; Re:wild; Stewardship Asia Centre; Temasek Foundation; The Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN); United Nations Global Compact \u2013 Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME); World Economic Forum \u2013 GAEA (Giving to Amplify Earth Action).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shaping the discourse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CGS has contributed to numerous sustainability conversations during Impact Week, a well-being economic conference and festival co-organised by TPC and No.17 Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the moderator of a panel on corporate disclosures, accountability, reporting, and regeneration, Prof Loh, together with esteemed panellists, discussed the merits of data and accountability, as well as how strong boards and governance underpin credible disclosures. The panel noted that accountability is broadening from shareholders to stakeholders, and that good data informs strategy, builds trust, and directs capital. Notably, companies should go beyond measuring their carbon footprint to measure their ecological footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
