About the webinar
Chile's Sustainability and Climate Change Agency promotes the inclusion of climate change and sustainable development in private sector strategies through public-private agreements and the implementation of programs and projects that contribute to building a resilient, low-emission economy. Clean Production Agreements (CPAs) are voluntary agreements that establish actions and goals to achieve clean production in a given period. The APL instrument was the first NAMA (Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action), registered and recognized in the world in 2012.
Chilealimentos, the trade association for the processed food sector, the main exporter of processed fruits and vegetables in the Southern Hemisphere, is finalizing its third APL. Within the framework of the Community of Practice on Private Sector Involvement in Climate Policy Processes in Latin America, facilitated by the EUROCLIMA+ Program through GIZ, the LEDS LAC Secretariat and the CLACDS of INCAE Business School, the consolidation and dissemination of the results of this APL has been supported.
This webinar will disseminate Chilealimentos' sustainability and climate change indicators. In addition, the methodology of the APL, which can be replicated in other sectors and countries, will be shared. The webinar will be conducted in Spanish. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the LEDS LAC Platform Secretariat: info@ledslac.org.
