We'll be adding resources here looking at: 

  • Energy transition and green jobs: proposals to drive the energy transition and foster green jobs in the aftermath of the pandemic.
  • Adaptation and resilience: overcoming the barriers and enhancing the role of youth in accelerating adaptation and resilience.
  • Nature based solutions: exploring and recognizing the interlinkages between nature and climate change, and the role of natural solutions in supporting livelihoods and achieving sustainable development.
  • Financial flows: proposals for countries on how to realign financial flows so that they support a low carbon and climate resilient future.
  • Tourism: proposals to guide the recovery of the tourism industry worldwide while ensuring sustainability, acknowledging the mutual relations with climate change.
