Limitless 2022 Summit
World Vision is organizing a regional virtual summit ‘Limitless 2022’ to reflect on how corporations across Asia-Pacific can lead sustainable change for children.
The theme for the summit, ‘Crisis to Hope’, will rally around the impact that strategic partnerships with corporations can make to positively impact children and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
The Summit is scheduled to be held on August 2nd and 3rd, between 10:00 hrs and 14:00 hrs SGT.
Almost 400 corporations, partners and NGOs will come together at Limitless 2022 to exchange views and agree on concrete steps they can take to address issues facing children across the Asia Pacific. They will explore possibilities of applying their resources to overcome social and economic challenges experienced by children in the midst of a deadly pandemic, deteriorating social and economic inequality and increased exploitation.
Titans of industry and specialists from the development sector will engage with participants, addressing issues of Youth and Inclusive Economic Growth, Technology and Education, Hunger and Sustainable Food Systems, Climate Change and Bottom lines, and Volunteerism for Re-engagement.
