Remaking trade for a cleaner future

5 Dec

14:00-14:45 GST

As countries advance their technological solutions, in the wake of the Global Stocktake, which shows the world falling far short of the emissions reductions required, the potential to restructure the World Trade Organization (WTO) and international trade system in a way that provides sharper incentives for sustainable production and consumption can redirect the global economy toward a more favorable trajectory to accelerate clean energy infrastructure development and deployment. Panelists will discuss the findings of the Villars Framework for a Sustainable Trade System, the culmination of a multi-stakeholder project to develop a comprehensive, people-centered, and climate-aligned trade reform agenda that aligns the trade reform agenda with national climate action, and reduces market barriers to trade in clean energy technology.
