Charter to increase climate awareness

Indian Institute of Management Lucknow (IIM-L) and Yes Bank have recently signed a charter to help spread ‘Climate Literacy,’ to achieve sustainable development through shared learning. The bank will support IIM-L in updating its two-year course curriculum.

“Sustainability has become integral to corporate strategy and towards achieving holistic growth,” said Ajit Prasad, Director of IIM-Lucknow. “Our collaboration will enable our students to understand the perspective of corporates and address environmental and social issues in accordance with the economic challenges.”

The partnership with IIM-Lucknow would mould leaders focused on adopting the current best practices in environmental risks and financing environment-friendly sustainable growth, said Rana Kapoor, MD of Yes Bank.
