BSR | Co-creating Climate Justice Interventions Between Business and Communities Climate Justice and the Role of Business Leveraging BSR’s “act, enable, and influence” framework, businesses can advance climate justice across three dimensions: acting within their own boundaries; enabling collective action within value chains, communities, and industry groups; and applying their influence to ensure that public policy and regulations are aligned with climate justice. ▪ Act: Ensure justice is integrated into climate strategy, policies, practices, and investments. ▪ Enable: Co-create interventions and opportunities with communities most affected, and leverage company assets and expertise to drive solutions across the value chain and industry. ▪ Influence: Promote public policies that address systemic inequities and institutional barriers, influence government activities and the implementation of policy and local regulation, and strengthen the inclusion and protection of stakeholders most affected by climate change. Developing a climate justice strategic framework can ensure that climate justice is integrated into company climate strategies, transition plans, and goals. Centering communities who are most affected by climate change in the identification and development of climate interventions is fundamental to meaningful business action on climate justice. 6
