In a recent interview with CGTN's Global Business, Severin Podolak, Head of Event Management and Operations at the World Economic Forum (WEF), highlighted sustainability and diversity as central themes for this year's event.
Podolak shared that the 2024 Davos Forum is striving to \"reduce, reuse and recycle,\" implementing measures to minimize its environmental impact. One such initiative includes subsidizing participants who travel by public transportation, encouraging eco-friendly travel choices.
He also emphasized the importance of diverse representation at the forum. The event aims to bring together participants from various regions, industries, and opinions to foster inclusive dialogue.
By focusing on sustainability and diversity, the WEF aims to create a meaningful platform for addressing global challenges.
