The Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) and NewClimate Institute are pleased to invite you to a dialogue on 'How can the long-term strategies (LTS) of the G20 members help forge partnerships and decarbonise?' on 24 August 2023, 1300 - 1800 IST at Juniper Hall, India Habitat Centre, New Delhi.

In 2015, the Paris Agreement was signed by 195 nations, recognising the urgent threat of climate change. It mandates the creation and communication of Long-Term Low greenhouse gas Emissions Development Strategies (LT-LEDS )—under Article 4, paragraph 19— based on Common But Differentiated Responsibilities and Respective Capabilities (CBDR-RC) to accommodate each country's unique circumstances.

With 85% of global GDP, 75% of trade, two-thirds of the world's population, and around 80% of greenhouse gas emissions, the G20 shapes climate change discourse. The Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) and the New Climate Institute have collaborated on analysing G20 LT-LEDS, across mutiple themes like adaptation, mitigation, capacity building, finance, technology, just transition, and governance for enhanced cooperation.

The dialogue aims to disseminate the findings of the analysis conducted while also aiming to unpack key priorities and areas of cooperation amongst the G20 which will help foster stronger partnerships and collaboration in the fight against climate change.
