Financing for Green Infrastructure Investment
As in previous years, a half-day Associated Event on green infrastructure took place at the EBRD Annual Meeting and Business Forum. Organised by EBRD’s Economics, Policy and Governance Department and the Energy Efficiency and Climate Change team, the event focused on green infrastructure as a way to boost the EBRD region’s economic growth, while at the same promoting resource, energy, and carbon efficiency and lessening environmental degradation.
As was the case at the 2015 Annual Meeting in Tbilisi, the EBRD organised its Associated Event in partnership with the Reinventing Bretton Woods Committee (RBWC), a not-for-profit organisation that promotes the stability of the international financial architecture and monetary system, as well as with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the lead organisation coordinating environmental matters within the United Nations system.
Agenda:
12:30 – 13:15 Introduction and Keynote Speech by EBRD President Sir Suma Chakrabarti
13:15 – 14:45 Session I: Building Up Supply and Demand: Frameworks for Innovative Financial Instruments and Pipelines of Green Infrastructure Projects
15:00 – 16:30 Session II: Building Roadmap for Sustainable Financing in a Country
16:30 – 17:00 Closing Remarks
