The second annual Responsible Investment (RI) week takes place between June 1 and June 5.

The Responsible Investment Association (RIA) will be hosting a series of events in different Canadian cities to promote education and awareness of the environmental, social and corporate governance issues that affect investments.

Events will include the RIA’s 2015 conference, which will take place May 31 to June 2 in Banff, Alta.

The conference agenda includes discussions on tackling climate change through market mechanisms; sustainable investing in an era of resource abundance; and how advisors can tap into a rising demand for RI.

There are also events scheduled for Toronto and the RIA notes more events are to be announced.
