A new climate change regime will bring both opportunities and challenges to the private sector. Climate finance, carbon pricing and other policy-enabling frameworks will encourage investment and innovation in clean technologies throughout the region, according to a news release from South Pole Group, which develops emissions reduction projects.
Manuel Cocco, principal for climate policy, has been invited to participate in two of the sessions. On Wednesday 9 September he will join the plenary session on climate finance and clean technologies. On 10 September at a session dealing with transparency and accountability implementing mitigation actions, Cocco will share experiences from Latin American and Caribbean countries and discuss the challenges and benefits of implementing Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) systems.
