Today, at the UN Environment Programme Finance Initiative's (UNEP FI) Global Round Table 2022, we are launching the Principles for Responsible Banking Academy to train all bankers about the climate emergency and sustainability. To truly align banks’ strategy and practice with the objectives of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Climate Agreement, the global banking sector must urgently upskill bank employees to ensure sustainability is considered in all strategic, lending, product and other decisions. The new Academy has been designed in partnership with banks to help signatories to the Principles for Responsible Banking implement the sustainability framework across all their business activities. Over the next 5 years, it is expected that all 300 plus signatories will make the Academy available to their several million employees. Developed by the world’s most established professional banking institute, the Chartered Banker Institute, the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative, the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH and working with a range of banks from across the world, the PRB Academy has developed a wide-ranging curriculum that is offered via a range of accessible training modules.
