Celebrating 50 Years: The Evolution of Responsible Investing
On September 12, 2023 Seventh Generation Interfaith Coalition for Responsible Investment (SGI-CRI) will hold its annual conference from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The event will be hosted at St. Francis of Assisi Parish, located at 1937 N. Vel R. Phillips Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53212. There will also be an option to attend virtually.
This year’s theme is Celebrating 50 Years: The Evolution of Responsible Investing. There are many diverse ESG investing and socially responsible investing practices. Within SGI we have faith-based members, asset managers, and advisors, all sharing a focus on the practice of responsible investing. Amid growing challenges from those who oppose these practices, we remain committed to our mission:
Through the lens of faith and the promotion of human rights, Seventh Generation Interfaith Coalition for Responsible Investment builds a more just and sustainable world for those most vulnerable by integrating social and environmental values into corporate and investor actions
The practice of SRI has evolved from the time when Fr. Mike Crosby, O.F.M., Cap. invited our first members to join him a half-century ago, and, assuredly, those practices will continue to evolve.
The event will begin with a panel of SGI members reflecting on SGI’s history, followed by a keynote by Corporate Responsibility leader, Tim Smith, and a second panel of ESG minded investors discussing the evolution and future of responsible and sustainable investing.
As well, Dan Tretow will receive the Fr. Mike Crosby Award at the conference reception.
