Hello and welcome to the Tech & Trees Podcast. My name is Pascal Mies and today I speak to a kick-ass woman from the world of impact investing: Sana Kapadia. Sana wears a lot a of different hats - amongst others she is the: Gender-Lead for Programmes & Advisory at the investment firm Roots of ImpactHead of Content & Project Director for the Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, short JEDI, working group at GenderSmart - a global initiative of investors to unlock gender-smart capital at scale and even more. To sum this up: she is an expert in the field of gender-lens investing. What is that? You will find out later. Gender inequality can easily be mistaken for just a social issue. However, an equal society is key to overcoming the climate crisis. Women are a huge potential force that we refuse to unlock. Impact investing can be a part of changing that. So we talk about how climate change and gender inequality are linked, how gender-lens investing changes the investment landscape and why caring about the environment is seen as something inherently feminine, Have fun!
