An Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) summit is set to bring together policymakers, business leaders, and development stakeholders to explore strategies for sustainable economic growth.

The summit is expected to focus on strengthening responsible investment practices, improving corporate accountability, and promoting long-term environmental sustainability.

Organisers said the event will provide a platform for dialogue on how businesses and governments can align development goals with global ESG standards.

Key discussions will centre on climate action, social impact policies, ethical governance, and the role of private sector participation in sustainable development.

Experts say ESG frameworks are increasingly important in attracting investment, improving transparency, and ensuring that economic growth does not come at the expense of environmental or social well-being.

Participants are also expected to examine how developing economies can integrate ESG principles into national policies without slowing down industrial and infrastructural growth.

Financial analysts note that global investors are placing greater emphasis on ESG compliance when making investment decisions, making the summit timely for emerging markets.

Stakeholders believe the outcome of the discussions could shape future policy directions and encourage more sustainable business practices across sectors.

The summit is expected to conclude with recommendations aimed at strengthening collaboration between government, private sector actors, and civil society.

Organisers expressed optimism that the event will contribute to more inclusive and sustainable growth strategies in the country.
