With increasing global uncertainty, there is the likelihood of a recession. In the case of competing budgets, sustainability and DEI are being traded off against each other. But does this depend on the approach?

What challenges exist for each route? What tensions? Some of the industry’s leading thinkers take on this ‘debate’.
