Additional speakers include:
While trade is increasingly recognized as an important lever to turn climate ambition into action, there is growing concern that the trade impacts of some climate policies may unfairly disadvantage other countries in their transition to a net-zero, climate-resilient economy. To fulfill trade’s potential as a transformative tool supporting climate action, new spaces are urgently needed for dialogue, trust building, and collaboration.
At COP30 in Belém, Brazil will launch the Integrated Forum on Climate Change and Trade, a three-year interdisciplinary dialogue among interested governments to find avenues for collaboration at the trade and climate nexus and enable ambitious climate action. For the past year, CGEP has led an International Dialogue on Climate and Trade to help build common ground for cooperative solutions. The event will highlight key developments and perspectives on the climate-trade front and ways these initiatives can point toward cooperative solutions.
