In a recent interview with CGTN's Global Business, Severin Podolak, Head of Event Management and Operations at the World Economic Forum, emphasized the organization's commitment to sustainability and diversity for the upcoming 2024 Davos Forum.
\"This year's event is all about 'reduce, reuse, and recycle',\" Podolak stated, highlighting measures such as subsidizing participants who opt for public transportation. \"We are doing our best to minimize our environmental footprint,\" he added.
The 2024 Davos Forum is also focusing on bringing diverse representation to the global stage. \"We have made significant efforts to include voices from different regions, industries, and perspectives,\" Podolak explained. \"It's crucial that we foster an inclusive dialogue to address the world's most pressing challenges.\"
With sustainability and diversity at its core, the World Economic Forum aims to set a new standard for international conferences. By encouraging eco-friendly practices and embracing a wide range of viewpoints, the 2024 Davos Forum aspires to make a meaningful impact on global affairs.
