ESSEC Executive Education invites you to an exclusive online masterclass:
Rethinking Responsibility: From Good Intentions to Carbon Capabilities
Sustainability is no longer only about what governments and companies can do, but also about what each of us, as individuals, is capable of doing. This masterclass explores the emerging concept of carbon capabilities: the knowledge, skills, resources and agency needed to turn sustainable intentions into action.
From mobility and consumption to energy and digital use, we will examine how everyday choices are shaped by constraints, incentives and social environments — and ask a central question: What am I capable of doing, and what would enable me to do more?
