A decade after the adoption of the Paris Agreement, progress offers grounds for optimism. OECD research has shown that reaching net zero is still possible and that ramping up climate action makes economic sense. However, barriers persist and countries do not act alone or in isolation. Harnessing the benefits of accelerated action calls for new and strengthened approaches to climate governance and international co-operation.
Drawing on findings from the OECD Horizontal Project on Climate, Economic and Social Resilience, this high-level opening session will explore what forms of governance and co-operation are needed to catalyse change that unlock systemic barriers. How can countries build new partnerships to unleash finance and investment in EMDEs? In the context of growing geopolitical tensions, how can trade be leveraged to diffuse clean technologies and practises worldwide? How can non-state actors be effectively brought into the fold and how can the OECD best support these initiatives?
