Road to COP28 - "Just Transition for Arab states…

Some of the Arab countries are the largest contributors to emissions and to the changing climate. The Arab region is also one of the most impacted by climate change, with water scarcity, desertification, loss of biodiversity being some of the effects already witnessed. Meanwhile, Arab countries have enormous human, natural and economic potential for leapfrogging and rapid clean economic growth. In order to tap into the huge potential for job creation in a diversified economy, a comprehensive set of just transition policies has the potential to stimulate economic growth and added value in agriculture, industry and services. The event will discuss how to move from commitment to the implementation of Just Transition policies.
