The global economic slowdown that has accompanied COVID-19 lockdowns has resulted in improved air quality and reduced emissions in many parts of the world. But as we look ahead and start imagining life post-pandemic, how can we make sure these climate improvements are not only temporary but instead part of a broader transition to net-zero economies?

 

As the world steps up efforts to tackle the massive challenges presented by coronavirus, it will be pivotal to ensure that efforts to rebuild economies support a transition to a sustainable and low- carbon economy – while keeping job retention and creation front and center. 

On June 17, 2020 Devex and CDC Group will convene a group of experts to discuss how rebuilding efforts can support green growth and employment as a way of building resilience to future shocks – including those brought about as a result of climate change. The second event of the online event series will also explore issues such as how to best support businesses to not only help them survive, but to help them become more resilient and thrive moving forward.
