InSIS is hosting a virtual seminar “A regional view on climate action and carbon removal in Latin America” with the partnership of the University of Oxford Latin American Centre, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) and Climate Works. The event will allow participants to discuss the implications of the outcomes of the Climate conference in Glasgow (UNFCCC COP26) and build a regional perspective on the current situation regarding climate policy, enhancing carbon sinks, and developing new approaches for removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). The four hours event will cover both national cases and regional perspectives. The event is hosted as part of the project GGR: Governance and Standards for Carbon Neutrality (GASCON).
Presenters include researchers from the University of Oxford, the University of Sao Paulo, Ceds-ReLab in Brazil, the University Diego Portales and University Alberto Urtado in Chile, SwP Berlin, the Foundation Torcuato Di Tella in Argentina, in addition to experts from WWF and ECLAC.
