#13 The PIDG Vision: A Strategy for the Coming Decade
Without addressing the urgent challenge of the climate crisis and the economic and geopolitical issues that it brings, sustainable development and poverty reduction are not possible. To ensure we’re equipped to deal with the many challenges the coming decade will present, the PIDG 2023-30 Strategy makes sustainable development and action on climate and nature the company’s central purpose.
In this episode we discuss the macro trends that are reshaping the infrastructure sector in emerging markets and developing countries. How this new focus has shifted PIDG’s priorities, and those of its sister companies. And how PIDG intends to achieve and measure its hefty goals of improving climate resilience and economic opportunities for 100 million people by 2030.
One of the main takeaways from this episode is a call to action for both internal and external collaboration – that companies across the development finance world need to work together to solve these urgent challenges.
Our guests are:
Marco Serena, Chief Sustainable Impact Officer at PIDG
Karen Tsang-Hounsell, Head of Business Development at InfraCo Asia, PIDG’s project development and equity arm in Asia
Your host is Marcel Klebba, communications manager at PIDG.
