It covers issues of growing relevance for employers and decision-makers, including:
- Extreme weather and operational disruptions
- Supply chains and food security
- Workforce health and wellbeing
- Economic resilience and the cost of living
- Energy, infrastructure and national security
- Risks and opportunities for organisations adapting to a changing world
As part of the lead-up to Stockport's sixth , this screening is delivered in partnership with Marketing Stockport and offers an opportunity for local businesses, employers and professional networks to better understand emerging risks, explore opportunities for resilience, and consider the role organisations can play in creating a thriving future for Stockport.
Following the screening, there will be a facilitated discussion exploring local perspectives and practical actions for organisations.
