November 18, 2020: Hosted by Rep. Tina Wildberger, panelists Ian Chan Hodges, Imogen Rose-Smith, Delilah Rothenberg, and Jason Ward discussed how pension funds make investment decisions, the connection between unions, workers, beneficiaries, and private equity, how private equity can be restructured so that workers and communities share in more of the gains, and what all this has to do with Maui and Hawaii, particularly in the current economic crisis.

Financing a Just Transition to a Regenerative Hawaii Economy

COVID-19 and resulting policies, including a lockdown on travel, shine a spotlight on the underlying weaknesses of Hawaii’s economy. Our over-dependence on tourism, lack of food security, and the need for both energy independence and an inclusive digital infrastructure are among the most pressing factors facing our community. Panelists considered how Maui and Hawaii can work through the current COVID and economic crisis and build an equitable economy that provides good jobs for our residents while meeting community standards and values.
