How Emerging Economies Will Green the World
A major conference dedicated to the energy-environment-development triangle and the rise of Global Growth Generators.
Conference
The somehow provocative theme of the 2011 EnergyPact UNCTAD conference aims at addressing energy and climate change issues under new perspectives. For the first time a major conference dedicated to the energy-environment-development triangle will explore the sustainable and green economy agendas of emerging markets in a specific way.
“The EnergyPact UNCTAD Conference provides an exceptional opportunity for us, developing countries, the Global South.”
