Can capitalism be sustainable, in more than one sense of the word? For Unilever CEO Paul Polman, the answer is a resounding yes. Polman, the 35th Robert S. Hatfield Fellow in Economic Education, presented “The Case for Sustainable Capitalism” Oct. 12 to an audience of more than 200 people in Alice Statler Auditorium.
Polman addressed the changing role of business and why new forms of leadership are required to help address the world’s biggest challenges, highlighting the urgency of accelerating progress on the Sustainable Development Goals, a global framework to eliminate poverty, end inequality, and tackle climate change by 2030.
