Against a backdrop of more extreme weather, divisive politics, and clean energy battles, the green sector - much like the tech industry - has been called on to be transparent about their diversity data and make large-scale commitments to change. It's no secret that environmental issues hit low-income communities and people of color harder than others. This panel will bring together leaders of these mainstream organizations as well as diverse pioneers to discuss specific and innovative ways that the green sector can better represent the communities it serves.

SXSW’s original goal was to create an event that would act as a tool for creative people and the companies they work with to develop their careers, to bring together people from a wide area to meet and share ideas. That continues to be the goal today whether it is music, film or interactive technologies.
