Transitioning to a clean energy growth model: Challenges, opportunities and solutions

The sixth session of the multi-year expert meeting will discuss national and international dimensions of building industrial capacity in a climate-constrained world and propose directions for policymaking to steer the global economy towards a more sustainable future.

Discussions will concentrate on the topic of transitioning to a clean energy growth model. The issues underscored in subparagraphs 127 (aa), (kk) and (mm) of the Bridgetown Covenant will also be addressed.

The main assumption is that this transition can only be accomplished by building industrial capacity in developing countries and promoting structural transformation of their economies in order to achieve economic diversification, employment creation and technological catch-up.

Particular issues to be addressed include the enabling conditions at the global level, domestic challenges for a successful structural transformation, regional aspects of building green industrial capacities, and the link between green industrial policy and financing the green transition.

Experts are expected to bring to the meeting their own perspectives and to highlight specific issues in connection with their areas of expertise.

Contributed Papers

Experts are encouraged to prepare and submit brief papers (5-12 pages) related to one or more of the issues to be discussed.

These papers will be made available at the meeting in the form and language in which they are received.
