About the Initiative

The main objectives of the Initiative are:

  • to rise awareness about the issue of climate change among decision makers
  • to motivate those in the private sector to approach the climate change issue in a constructive way

The DCA constitutes a platform to offer concrete action

  • to offset individually produced greenhouse gas emissions generated by attending the Annual Meeting. Join our programme: Offset your greenhouse gas emissions due to participating at World Economic Forum 2006!
  • to promote sound measures/best practices aimed at mitigating carbon related risks by providing a platform for the exchange of ideas, experiences and initiating joint programs
