In two terms at the head of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, Sir Suma Chakrabarti oversaw operations at this leading development bank as climate change rose to the top of the international agenda.

In his role, Sir Suma oversaw the integration of the Sustainable Development Goals into bank activities, stressed the role of the green economy, and, most recently, confronted the coronavirus pandemic.

In conversation with World Resources Institute (WRI) President and CEO Andrew Steer, Sir Suma will reflect on his time at the helm of the EBRD, the unique role of the bank in sustainable development and its past, present, and future role in confronting the climate challenge. Respondents drawn from diverse EBRD stakeholder groups will offer brief remarks, following by audience Q&A.
