PwC collaborates with the Global Solutions Initiative (GSI) and T20.
Through PwC's contribution at the Global Solutions Summit, we help business and policy makers collaborate on issues of global importance and specifically, on the need to bring about systemic change so that economies deliver more effectively, more consistently, and more sustainably for societies.
Our collaboration with GSI has grown out of the need to provide a more integrated, coherent response to pressing societal issues across different stakeholder groups, including business.
This interview is part of the 2020 Digital Global Solutions Summit . Hosted by journalist Declan Curry with Robert E. Moritz, Chairman of PwC International, and Peter Bakker, President and CEO of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD).
“It is both remarkable and encouraging to see the energy, innovation, creativity, flexibility, compassion and commitment brought by so many people and businesses to help address the challenges of this pandemic and to support their communities.”
At the summit PwC works with GSI on the Young Global Changers (YGC) programme that brings 90 young people from around the globe together in a Summer School to enable them to build new skills, knowledge and networks. The programme will include five high performing people from PwC Saudi Arabia, PwC Europe and PwC Germany.
During the Digital Global Solutions Summit, these young changemakers from academia, business and civil society will contribute and debate in their various working groups on the Summit topics.
