Southwark Council is advancing its climate action by adopting a new plan for environmental sustainability and reviewing responsible investment initiatives for its pension fund.

Southwark Council is currently focusing on environmental sustainability as part of its climate action. In September 2026, the Council Assembly adopted a new joint administration's plan for Southwark, which includes a focus on environmental sustainability alongside affordability and safety.

The council is also reviewing its approach to responsible investment. The Southwark Pensions Advisory Panel discussed responsible investment initiatives concerning the Southwark Pension Fund in September 2026, alongside updates on investment performance and governance.

The Southwark Council Climate Action Plan is a strategic plan outlining actions to address climate change and promote sustainability within the borough. In September 2025, the council was scheduled to discuss updating its pension fund's carbon footprint. No further meetings are currently scheduled to discuss the plan.
