We've decided to check out if the grass is greener on the other side! We're moving to Bluesky. While we’ll keep our Twitter/X account open, we won’t be posting here anymore.
Come and say hello @climateparl.bsky.social, where we’ll continue sharing updates.
🌍 In Session 3 we explored how climate finance could support the global energy transition. Speakers from @theGCF, @MIGA, @InstituteGC, @GSolarCouncil shared insights on the resources available and opportunities to leverage investment in #GreenZones - 1/2
In our second session, we dived into #GreenZones as a strategy for attracting investment. We discussed how location, connectivity and risk reduction make projects bankable 📈🌱 #IstanbulDialogue #ParliamentariansforClimateFinance
In today's session "Turning Climate Risks into Economic Opportunities," we explored how the surge in global #climatefinance is transforming green investment into an engine for growth 🌍📈 with @GhoneimRana @julianpopov @erik_korsgren #IstanbulDialogue #GreenInvestment
🗣️ “The game has changed, therefore the rules have to change.” With renewable energy costs falling, green investment is increasingly private-driven, calling for specific regulations and frameworks to attract #ClimateFinance
Today, we’re kicking off our Green Investment #IstanbulDialogue. Welcoming 70 parliamentarians from 35 countries alongside experts, investors & international organisations. We’re looking forward to productive discussions on #GreenZones #ClimateFinance for a greener future 🌍🌱
