What to expect from COP22? Brussels, joint debate Ifri - OCP Policy Center
COP21 has been a resounding success; all 196 Parties to the UN Convention on Climate Change have committed to take concrete steps toward decarbonizing the global economy and increasing resilience to a changing climate. All eyes are now turning to the November 2016 COP22 to see whether declarations of intent translate into tangible progress on the ground.
This Energy Breakfast Roundtable is hosted by Ifri, in partnership with Morrocan think-tank OCP Policy Center. It will look at last year’s developments in terms of global climate action, discuss the different steps for a full implementation of the Paris agreement and identify reasonable expectations for the COP22 Marrakech Conference. The four expert presentations (15min each) will be followed by a Q&A session under the Chatham House rule.
Speakers:
- Abdelali Dakkina, Director of Strategy & Development at Morroco’s National Agency for Renewable Energies and Energy Efficiency (ADEREE)
- Carole Mathieu, Researcher at the Ifri Center for Energy, Author of the Ifri-OCP PC Research Paper “From COP21 to COP22: Keeping up the Momentum”
