Aligning Policy Engagement with Net Zero

During this first event of its kind in Asia-Pacific Climate Week, Race to Zero, We Mean Business Coalition, InfluenceMap, and Under2 Coalition will explore how non-state actors can mobilize net zero aligned policy and regulation through their advocacy. The event will open with a keynote from Ulka Kelkar, Director of Climate at World Resources Institute India.

In breakout discussion rooms, attendees will explore the challenges and benefits of supporting net zero aligned ground rules in the Asia-Pacific region, and how net zero ground rules can:

• Level the playing field for non-state actors;
• Create an enabling environment in key sectors;
• Unlock private sector investment; and
• Create a smooth path for climate innovation and transferral of technical assistance.

With India's influential position as Chair of the G20, the event will hone in on how Indian non-state actors in particular can lead on net zero aligned advocacy and policy.

InfluenceMap's Senior Analyst, Vivek Parekh, will speak on the webinar panel.
