I4CE participates in five side-events around the “One Planet Summit” which mobilizes public and private finance at the service of climate action. The event convened by President Macron will be held in Paris on September 12, 2017.
“Mainstreaming!” in association with Climate Finance Day 2017
- Monday 11 December 2017, from 9:00 am to 12:15 pm
- Pierre Mendes France Conference Center, Ministry for the Economy and Finance 139 Rue de Bercy, 75012 Paris
During COP21, financial institutions set up 5 Voluntary Principles for Climate Mainstreaming and launched the Climate Action in Financial Institutions Initiative. Two years on, how public and private financial actors from the North and South have mainstreamed climate considerations in practice? What headway has been achieved in strategies, climate risk management, financial products and tools, and in terms of transparency and accountability? What are the ambitions for the coming years? How can the initiative help all financial institutions act to make climate change a core business consideration?
This event aims to show that climate mainstreaming by the financial community is possible and encourage new actors to join the movement.
