Jeheon Kwak

Jeheon Kwak, a passionate advocate for environmental stewardship and sustainability, hails from South Korea where he identified a critical gap in capacity-building programs related to ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) for the youth. Recognizing that young adults play a pivotal role in driving ESG initiatives within enterprises, Jeheon founded the ESG Youth Forum as a solution to this pressing issue. This online-based platform aims to educate and empower the youth on integrating sustainability practices into corporate strategies to combat climate change.

With South Korea being one of the top 10 CO2-producing nations and facing increasing global attention due to its vibrant K-Pop industry, Jeheon is determined to address the climate crisis and bridge the gap in environmental education. By providing accessible and impactful online education events, the ESG Youth Forum not only reduces carbon emissions but also ensures that all regions have equal access to essential ESG knowledge. Jeheon envisions a future where promising talents are equipped with practical skills to incorporate ESG considerations into decision-making processes, ultimately fostering a more sustainable society.
