TBLI CONFERENCE™ is the largest annual global networking and learning event on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Investing of Asia and Europe, the theme for 2010 being "Values and Leadership in Finance." In existence for over 10 years, TBLI CONFERENCE™ consists of two annual conferences. These two-day events give the world’s leaders on sustainability an opportunity to network and exchange information on the latest developments in screening, auditing, reporting, SRI analysis, corporate citizenship, indexes, and research.

As a part of the conference, ASrIA will be organizing two parallel events:

Workshop 3 - Emerging Markets Disclosure, The Asian Perspective
ASrIA is partnering with the EMDP country teams from Asia to introduce the EMDP initiative and share perspectives on the challenges of disclosure and engagement in emerging markets.

Workshop 11 - Carbon Disclosure and Water Disclosure, Platforms For Change
ASrIA is the Asian ex-Japan partner for the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and this year CDP is introducing a Water Disclosure Project to run parallel with their long running carbon disclosure initiative.  Real progress has been made with carbon disclosure in Asia, but water is emerging as a critical and practical issue that investors and companies need to engage with.  It is therefore topical to examine the relationship between these two issues.

Speaker Opportunity: There is still room for one more speaker in Workshop 11 – interested members are welcome to contact david@asria.org.
