About

Feedback from those who participated in ARRCC’s first online seminar was enthusiastic, and everyone expressed interest in a second session. Two participants wrote:
‘Through this seminar I now know that divestment is achievable, ethical and financially sound. I also feel empowered to take the first steps. Thank you!’
‘I found out how to make a positive difference for our world in a way that is sustainable and life giving.

This 60 minute webinar is especially suited to diocesan finance teams but we also welcome Bishops, diocesan staff and social justice advocates. It is organised by the divestment working group of Australian Religious Response to Climate Change. Topics to be covered:
(a) Catholic moral teachings and Catholic progress internationally
(b) Our industry expert, Trevor Thomas, will apply the latest portfolio management tools to a more-or-less typical portfolio to assess carbon exposure and identify high-performing positive impact
(c) There will be ample question time
