  • Description: 

    The rise of tariffs and trade protectionism is rippling through all parts of the global economy, and sustainability is no exception. How do they increase risks to sustainable progress, but also how might tariffs create opportunities to accelerate sustainable transformations such as circularity or local sourcing? In this session we will draw from latest EY insights to take stock of current state of tariff policy, reflect on the dimensions of sustainability most impacted and discuss how sustainability leaders should navigate these uncharted waters.
