Our approaches to achieve this, beyond the work of our Coalitions of Action,\u00a0include increasing our reach in Asia, building on our digital connections, and expanding to working with smaller,\u00a0more localised members \u2013 encouraging action at every level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report demonstrates the industry\u2019s resilience, while recognising the challenges ahead.
