Nairobi, Kenya – The Kenya National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KNCCI) Energy, Climate Change, and ESG Committee held a strategic meeting today with the Executive Dean of Strathmore Business School, Dr. Caesar Mwangi, and the institution’s leadership to discuss potential areas of collaboration.
Hon. Faith Mwaura, a key figure in the discussions, emphasized the importance of partnerships in fostering sustainable business practices and addressing climate change challenges. The deliberations focused on key areas such as Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) training, research partnerships, and adaptation initiatives aimed at enhancing corporate sustainability and resilience.
“This engagement marks a significant step toward strengthening ESG compliance and climate adaptation strategies within the business community,” Hon. Mwaura stated. “By working together with academic institutions like Strathmore Business School, we can develop impactful training programs and research-driven solutions to help businesses navigate the evolving sustainability landscape.”
The meeting reflects KNCCI’s ongoing commitment to promoting climate-conscious business practices and equipping enterprises with the knowledge and tools necessary to integrate ESG principles into their operations. As climate concerns continue to shape global and local economic policies, such collaborations will be instrumental in driving innovation and sustainable growth.
Further engagements between KNCCI and Strathmore Business School are expected as both institutions refine their joint strategies to support businesses in Kenya and beyond.
