Free
This one-day seminar, co-hosted by SFU’s Centre for Corporate Governance and Sustainability and UBC’s Peter P. Dhillon Centre for Business Ethics and led by Shannon Rohan from SHARE, built on our November workshop on ESG valuation.
The seminar was attended by students from SFU and UBC interested in learning more about responsible investment.
| 9:00am-noon | ESG Screening In this hands-on morning session, we undertook background ESG research on two companies to help student fund managers and others understand how to address ESG factors in the selection of securities. |
| 12:00pm-12:30pm | lunch (provided) |
| 12:30pm-4:30pm | Stewardship In the afternoon, we explored stewardship, including proxy voting and active engagement, and made a plan for how the student funds can approach both of these activities. |
Both sessions included the participation of industry professionals that are actively involved in responsible investment.
