Follow the Money: Fossil Banks, COP31 & Citizen Action
Wed, Nov 18, 6:30 PM**What happens when the money we put in the bank helps finance the very industries driving climate change?** We often talk about reducing our carbon footprints, changing our consumption habits, and pushing governments to take stronger climate action. But there is another important piece of the puzzle that deserves more attention: the role of banks, financial institutions and corporations in financing the fossil fuel industry and perpetuating the climate crisis. Following [our gathering last December](https://www.meetup.com/es-es/lets-talk-about-climate-change/events/312256713/?eventOrigin=group_calendar), where we came together to discuss COP30 and explore the realities of international climate negotiations, we're continuing the conversation. This month, we are honoured to have Adrien joining us again, and help us focus on the financial flows behind the climate crisis. We'll explore how banks continue to finance fossil fuels, how corporate interests influence climate policy, and what citizens can do to demand greater corporate accountability and drive change. **What will we discuss?** * COP31 and the influence of fossil fuel interests * Fossil banks: Following the money * Citizen action: Choosing a responsible bank * Corporate accountability beyond banking **About our speaker: Adrien Tofighi-Niaki** Adrien Tofighi-Niaki has 15 years of experience working at the intersection of climate change, environmental justice and human rights. His research focuses on extractive industries, corporate accountability, greenwashing, land rights and financial flows. He combines investigative research, data analysis and community-based approaches to support civil society advocacy and frontline communities. His work has been featured in The Guardian, BBC, Financial Times, NPR, Mongabay and Democracy Now!, among other international media outlets. Find out more: [https://www.aniaki.work/](https://www.aniaki.work/) **Why Join Us?** Climate action is not only about what governments decide at international conferences. It is also about where money flows, how corporations operate, and the choices and collective pressure we can bring to bear as citizens. Our everyday financial decisions may have more influence than we realise. Understanding the connections between our banks, corporate power and the climate crisis is an important step towards taking meaningful action. Whether you're already familiar with fossil fuel financing and corporate accountability or simply curious about what your bank has to do with climate change, you're very welcome! No specialist knowledge is required. **We kindly request a donation up to 5 euros to support the running of Let's Talk About Climate Change**, a voluntary initiative. See you there!

COP31 Outcomes and Leading Impact in times of uncertainty
Thu, Nov 26, 6:00 PMOur social impact Meetup is back! At a time when securing and sustaining funding has become more challenging for many organizations in the impact space, we are coming together to reflect on the outcomes of COP31, share resilient leadership experiences and practices, learn from one another, and connect Welcome and Introduction by Devex (5 min) - Alex Cabaret Mini-Briefing: Key Outcomes from COP31 (10 min) - Lluis Vilardell Talk and Practice: Resilient Leadership - Navigating Uncertainty and Sustaining Impact (30-35 min) - Lauren Sorkin Networking Drinks (60 min) The Talk When funding shifts suddenly, it is not plans or organizations that feel the impact first, but the people who sustain them. Lauren Sorkin led the Asian Development Bank’s first climate investment strategy and served as Executive Director of the Resilient Cities Network, expanding it to more than 100 cities worldwide. Having navigated significant professional and personal challenges, she will share what she learned leading international organizations through periods of uncertainty and changing funding landscapes, and how those experiences gave rise to Embodied Leadership, the foundation of her work today. Following her reflections on resilient leadership, Lauren will guide the group through a gentle movement and breathing practice. Through simple techniques for regulating stress and focusing attention, participants will explore how the way we breathe and respond under pressure shapes the way we lead. The exercises are done in pairs and small groups, creating an informal and supportive environment for people to connect on both a personal and professional level, beyond titles and institutions. It is a natural way to break the ice, build trust, and strengthen community, especially for groups that are beginning to work together or looking to deepen existing relationships. No prior experience or special clothing is required, just a willingness to move, breathe, and connect.
