DEADLINE: EJN Virtual Workshop on Climate Change and India's Private Sector for Communicators

What are the impacts of climate change on India’s private sector? How much does the private sector contribute to this crisis, and what are businesses doing about it? In particular, what actions are high-emitting sectors like steel and cement taking to reduce their emissions?

What role does ESG play in the South Asian context? What is the role of Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, or MSMEs, in climate mitigation? What are carbon markets, and what should communicators understand to better investigate instances of corporate greenwashing? What new business opportunities are emerging as a response to the climate crisis?

These questions and many more will be discussed with experts at a five-day virtual communicators’ workshop to improve the quality and quantity of reportage on the crucial transition to clean energy and clean mobility.

The workshop, hosted by Internews' Earth Journalism Network, will be online from 10 am to 12 noon every day (India time) from December 8-12, 2025.

The aim is to improve our understanding of these issues that are becoming more important to our coverage every day, and to develop contacts with experts we can go back to. The sessions will be structured as part-presentation and part-discussion.

Deadline: November 13, 2025, 11:59 PM (Asia/Kolkata)
